Concedes (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

allows

grants

'concedes' is the definition.
('grant' can be a synonym of 'concede')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for grants that I've seen before include "Awards or bestows" , "Agrees to, allows" , "Gives formally or allows as privilege" , "Bestows or concedes" , "'Subsidies, monetary aid (6)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the Sydney Morning Herald.
