Cause, bring about (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

prompt

induce

(Other definitions for prompt that I've seen before include "Give cue to forgetful actor" , "Arriving on time" , "Cause; done at once" , "Bring about; on time" , "keeping to the right time" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
