Authoritative statement (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dictum

'authoritative statement' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for dictum that I've seen before include "Short statement of a general principle" , "Authoritative statement" , "Formal pronouncement" , "Decree; maxim" , "Authoritative declaration" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
