An old crossword from The Times.

Have now finished and everything fits but not sure of the workings of this clue:

City authority absorbs almost all of NI town (9).

I have SALISBURY.

I am sure it is obvious, though not to me!

the N>I> town is Lisburn

Thanks, Dave. Should have seen that. I couldn't get the authority reference. Now with LISBUR(N), all is revealed: it's SAY.
