Decide against (a decision) (8)

I believe the answer is:

overrule

(Other definitions for overrule that I've seen before include "Reverse someone else's decision" , "Disallow by using one's superior authority" , "Don't allow" , "Prevail over - disallow" , "Countermand" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
