Waiting for security pass, as Stalin's nephew might have said? (9)
I believe the answer is:
uncleared
'waiting for security pass' is the definition.
(needing security clearance)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for uncleared that I've seen is " not given official approval?".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
