![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
approved
'accepted as satisfactory' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for approved that I've seen before include "Given the OK" , "Sanctioned, authorized" , "Sanctioned, authorised" , "confirmed" , "Okayed" .)
