Return out of the question? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

answer

I believe this is a double definition.

'return' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'the question?' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'out of' is the link.

(Other definitions for answer that I've seen before include "Solution (to problem)" , "Reply or 8 across" , "Acknowledge" , "Respond" , "Response to a question" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
