No longer pending? Right, get busy! (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

officer

'busy' is the definition.
(busy can informally mean a police officer)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for officer that I've seen before include "'An ... and a Gentleman, film (7)'" , "Possibly a major" , "eg Colonel" , "Commissioned member of armed forces" , "Major, say" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
