Crossword Genius

Consents, with conditions, to work set by us (3-4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

yes-buts

'consents with conditions' is the definition.
(saying yes but with a but)

'work set by us' is the wordplay.
'work' indicates an anagram.
'set'+'by'+'us'='setbyus'
'setbyus' with letters rearranged gives 'YES-BUTS'.

'to' is the link.
