Assigned task (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

remit

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">assigned task</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for remit that I've seen before include "Task/area assigned (to an organisation)" , "Relax; send (payment)" , "Cancel - terms of reference" , "Send (money) by post" , "Send - terms of reference" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
