Delegates of a vet's enterprise at sixes and sevens (15)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

representatives

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'delegates' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'a vet's enterprise at sixes and sevens' is the wordplay.
'at sixes and sevens' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a'+'vets'+'enterprise'='avetsenterprise'
'avetsenterprise' is an anagram of 'REPRESENTATIVES'.

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for representatives that I've seen before include "10 [HOUSE] of these in US" , "Officers" , "MPs!" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
