Dependable, honest (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reliable

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'dependable' is the first definition.
(I know that dependable can be written as reliable)

'honest' is the second definition.
(I know that honest can be written as reliable)

(Other definitions for reliable that I've seen before include "Able to be depended on" , "Trustworthy - genuine" , "Dependable, can be trusted" , "Trusty" , "worthy of trust" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and The Irish Times.
