I believe the answer is:

cautions

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'warnings' is the definition.
(caution is a kind of warning)

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

(Another definition for cautions that I've seen is " Warnings against certain acts".)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times and the Irish Times (Crosaire).
