Row in government at table (6)
I believe the answer is:
dining
'table' is the definition.
(dining table is a kind of table)
'row in government' is the wordplay.
'row' becomes 'din' (both can mean a loud disturbance**).
'government' becomes 'g'.
'din'+'in'+'g'='DINING'
'at' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for dining that I've seen before include "Eating main meal" , "Eating Dinner" , "Type of room, car, table" , "At table perhaps" , "Eating at table" .)
