The Parisian got prepared for release (3,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

let go

'release' is the definition.
('let go' can be a synonym of 'release')

'the parisian got prepared' is the wordplay.
'the parisian' becomes 'le' (definite article in French).
'prepared' indicates anagramming the letters.
'got' anagrammed gives 'tgo'.
'le'+'tgo'='LET GO'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for let go that I've seen before include "Release or free" , "Drop" , "Discuss no further - dismiss - release" , "Set at liberty, loose grip on" , "Release or permit to depart" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
