Closing searches, one perhaps cast in debate (9).

D - S - O - - - -

I'm thinking DISCOURSE because of the debate reference but other than that...not sure why.

Scours=searches
die=One cast

Still doesn't make total sense though

Ah, that's it! Thanks Harrhy. Closing, presumably, indicates that SCOURS is enclosed by D()IE in a word indicating debate. So I think it does make sense of a sort.
