Who will receive unfinished speech on bishop’s responsibility? (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

addressee

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

'who will receive' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'unfinished speech on bishop's responsibility?' is the wordplay.
'unfinished' means to remove the last letter.
'speech' becomes 'address' (address is a kind of speech).
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'bishop's responsibility?' becomes 'see' (jurisdiction of a bishop, eg the Holy See).
'address' with its final letter removed is 'addres'.
'addres'+'see'='ADDRESSEE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for addressee that I've seen before include "One sent letter" , "one who's likely to get the post" , "Intended recipient of letter" , "Person named on an envelope" , "He's written to" .)
