One has permission to tell story about moving scene (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

licensee

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one has permission' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't see how one could define the other.

'tell story about moving scene' is the wordplay.
'tell story' becomes 'lie'.
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'moving' is an anagram indicator.
'scene' anagrammed gives 'cense'.
'lie' placed around 'cense' is 'LICENSEE'.

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for licensee that I've seen before include "Person permitted to run pub" , "one allowed to serve" , "One allowed to sell alcohol" , "One with permit to sell alcoholic drinks" , "Person with official permit to sell, say, drink" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
