Some new ideas — comprehensive (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wide

'comprehensive' is the definition.
(associated in meaning)

'some new ideas' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word (some of the parts of the word are used).
'WIDE' is hidden within 'new ideas'.

(Other definitions for wide that I've seen before include "Broad - extra" , "roomy" , "Extensive" , "(At cricket) an extra" , "shrewd and shifty" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
