Satisfactory motive for a charity, for example (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
good cause
'a charity for example' is the definition.
(I know that charity is a type of good cause)
'satisfactory motive' is the wordplay.
'satisfactory' becomes 'good' (similar in meaning).
'motive' becomes 'cause' (I've seen this before).
'good'+'cause'='GOOD CAUSE'
'for' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
