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

'such a proposal' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for offer that I've seen before include "Pay increase" , "Volunteer, present" , "Volunteer -- proposal" , "Hold out, tender" , "Tender for acceptance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
