Proposes yields (7)

I believe the answer is:

submits

I believe this is a double definition.

'proposes' is the first definition.
(submitting is a kind of proposing)

'yields' is the second definition.
(submitting is a kind of yielding)

(Another definition for submits that I've seen is " Yields, capitulates".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
