Cancel; revoke (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

annul

This clue is a double definition.

'cancel' is the first definition.
(I know that annul is a type of cancel)

'revoke' is the second definition.
(I know that revoke can be written as annul)

(Other definitions for annul that I've seen before include "Repeal, rescind" , "Cancel officially" , "Scrap" , "Declare (a law) invalid" , "Countermand" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
