Crossword Genius

Orders from new CD site (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

edicts

'orders' is the definition.
('edict' can be a synonym of 'order')

'new cd site' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates an anagram.
'cd'+'site'='cdsite'
'cdsite' is an anagram of 'EDICTS'.

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for edicts that I've seen before include "Commands" , "Official orders and decrees" , "Official orders or proclamations" , "Official orders from authorities" , "'Decrees, fiats (6)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
