1. Authorising: This clue indicates that we are looking for a word related to giving permission or approval.
2. Chap: The term "chap" is informal British English for a man or guy. Therefore, we need to find a word that follows or comes after "ch" and means a man.
3. After it: This phrase suggests that the word we are looking for should come after the letters "it" or be situated following them.

Now, let's combine these clue elements and see how the answer "MANDATING" perfectly matches the given clue.

• Authorising: In the context of the crossword clue, "authorising" can be synonymous with "mandating." Both words imply giving permission or approval for certain actions or decisions.
• Chap: Following "ch," we have the letters "ap." If we consider these as a short form of "chap," we can see that "man" follows "ch" as required.
• After it: In "MANDATING," the letters "it" are present and "mandating" is situated right after them, exactly as indicated in the clue.
