Ring embassy revealing oversight (8)
I believe the answer is:
omission
'oversight' is the definition.
(omission is a kind of oversight)
'ring embassy' is the wordplay.
'ring' becomes 'o'.
'embassy' becomes 'mission' (I've seen this before).
'o'+'mission'='OMISSION'
'revealing' is the link.
(Other definitions for omission that I've seen before include "type of sin" , "Exclusion" , "lapse" , "Something left out or neglected" , "Something left out or not done" .)
