Negotiated rise expected remains (7)
I believe the answer is:
residue
'remains' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'negotiated rise expected' is the wordplay.
'negotiated' is an anagram indicator.
'expected' becomes 'due' (similar in meaning).
'rise' with letters rearranged gives 'resi'.
'resi'+'due'='RESIDUE'
(Other definitions for residue that I've seen before include "Dire use of what is left over" , "Matter left behind after other parts have been taken away" , "Remaining portion" , "It remains after other parts have been taken away" , "Material left" .)
