Formally renounce (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abdicate

(Other definitions for abdicate that I've seen before include "Resign from or renounce the throne" , "Resign from the crown or major responsibility" , "Vacate the throne voluntarily" , "quit" , "step down" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
