Point relation out for introduction (13)
I believe the answer is:
interpolation
'introduction' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'point relation out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'point'+'relation'='pointrelation'
'pointrelation' with letters rearranged gives 'INTERPOLATION'.
'for' acts as a link.
(Another definition for interpolation that I've seen is " Interjection".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
