Send for the right issue (5)

I believe the answer is:

remit

'send for' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'the right issue' is the wordplay.
'the right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'issue' becomes 'emit' (I've seen this before).
'r'+'emit'='REMIT'

(Other definitions for remit that I've seen before include "Area of responsibility" , "Send; abate; cancel" , "Send - scope of one's duties" , "Abate; send (money)" , "Put off" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
