Accepting, receiving (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

taking

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'accepting' is the first definition.
('take' can be a synonym of 'accept')

'receiving' is the second definition.
(taking is a kind of receiving)

(Other definitions for taking that I've seen before include "acceptance" , "Seizing, appropriating" , "infectious" , "Removing; stealing" , "Harm, damage" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
