Cancel terms of reference (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

remit

I believe this is a double definition.

'cancel' is the first definition.
(remitting is a kind of cancelling)

'terms of reference' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for remit that I've seen before include "Send - scope of one's duties" , "Put off" , "forward" , "Defer" , "Task/area assigned (to an organisation)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
