sorry, cj!

Evening All,
9d Conveyed and arbitrated - about time (9)
17a Design for the first time (6)

I have (I think!) MODULATED and UNVEIL respectively. This seems to fit but these last two answers do not give a letter T which is needed for the overall answer of TRACEY EMIN.
If anyone is doing this X-word can help, or if I can be of help, please let me know. Is it a compiler error?
THANKS IN ADVANCE, Chris.

Just bringing this back to the front page. Unfortunately I can't see either answer as being correct.

Thank You Wendy and Dandelion!
I think you are right Dandelion with INVENT but afraid ""mediated" only has 8 letters and 9 are needed. I will get out my old faithful thesaurus and see what i can find... then post the answer in case anyone else is struggling. (Although it's probably only me!)
Regards, Chris.

Doh!!
Mediated "about time".... so, shove in the "T" gives "MEDITATED". It fits!

Am I alone in thinking this is a rather vague clue though? Hey ho, must now start thinking how to spend the £500.
Thanks again, Chris.
