'fresh instructions on vice?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'summary of latest' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'summary' could be 'brief' (brief is a kind of summary) and 'brief' is found in the answer.
'latest' could be 'news' (the latest news) and 'news' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'in' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
