Second word is likely to be 'Paper'

Green Paper maybe?
Or if the 'U' is definite, Touch Paper? Pure guesses these, sorry.
Green Paper may be right
A green paper sets out gonenment policy I think
Green is a writer
Not sure how you get Paper though from "depreciating banknotes kill off"
Shuen paper fits and does relate to writing!
the last letter of the first word isn't "n"
we can only work with what we are given.
Question Author
The 'U' I am sure of, coming from IMPUNDULU, fabulous bird IMP(O)UND+(Z)ULU: Heartlessly confine South African after beheading his fabulous bird (9)
Not absolutely sure of the N, last letter of first word. Have means for keeping church strengthened (8)
EN FOR CE D.
Hope that this helps and thanks for trying, all.
