Propose movement forward (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

advance

This clue is a double definition.

'propose' is the first definition.
(advancing is a kind of proposing)

'movement forward' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for advance that I've seen before include "Forward movement, a change for the better" , "Payment ahead of due date (1'7)" , "Move forward to get loan?" , "Lend money on security" , "Go forwards" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
