Local authority (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

council

'local authority' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for council that I've seen before include "Body found in town hall" , "Elected body organising, say, county affairs" , "Governing body" , "Body of advisors" , "Town or county assembly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
