One of the abbreviations used in this puzzle is not in Chambers 12th edition, but it is in Chambers online and Collins dictionary.
The wordplay omits one particular letter whenever it occurs in the solution; the affected clues are asterisked.
Solve the crossword and answer the question (in relation to the grid only) posed by the answers to 1, 5, 11, 13.
