Send person recording minutes back (5)

I believe the answer is:

remit

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

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

I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.

(Other definitions for remit that I've seen before include "Send < authorisation" , "Pardon (a sin)" , "Shorten sentence or send money" , "Defer" , "instructions required" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
