Strict; rigid (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stringent

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'strict' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'rigid' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for stringent that I've seen before include "Harsh" , "Strict, precise, exacting" , "Demanding, inflexible" , "(Rule) allowing no discretion" , "tightly drawn" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
