Plan made by spy without time to meet lawyer (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

agenda

'plan' is the definition.
(agenda is a kind of plan)

'time to meet lawyer' is the wordplay.
'time' becomes 'age' (age is a kind of time).
'to meet lawyer' becomes 'nda' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'age'+'nda'='AGENDA'

'made by spy without' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

(Other definitions for agenda that I've seen before include "List of items for discussion at a meeting" , "List of items to be done" , "Something perhaps hidden" , "Schedule, order of business" , "List of items for discussion by committee" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
