Logical basis for a course of action (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rationale

(Other definitions for rationale that I've seen before include "Motivation" , "The logical basis of some thing or action" , "Logical reason for action" , "explanation" , "Underlying principle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
