Concludes from the facts (6)
I believe the answer is:
infers
'concludes from the facts' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for infers that I've seen before include "Deduces, gathers" , "Deduces, concludes" , "Takes or draws meaning from" , "'Derives, concludes (6)'" , "Concludes from the facts" .)
