Edict or maxim (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dictum

This clue is a double definition.

'edict' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'maxim' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for dictum that I've seen before include "Fiat" , "Authoritative statement" , "Authoritative declaration" , "Statement - saying" , "Popular maxim" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
