3D. National data to preserve, measure taken to conceal it (9). I've got Argentine but, apart from gen for data, can't parse it. Help please.

Are = Measure, like a hectare (I think!)
Tin = Preserve
Gen - Data

At gen tin e.

Thanks Malone!

You're welcome - and sorry about the typo!

Hi Malone,

You are quite correct:
an 'are' is a measure (of land)
one 'are' = 100 square metres
and one 'hectare' = 100 ares or 10,000 squares metres

Just in case you are interested....!

Thanks, pigale. I was confident of 'are' = 'measure', as I've seen it used before, but the details escaped me!
