Take away agreed-to changes (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

derogate

'take away' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'agreed-to changes' is the wordplay.
'changes' indicates anagramming the letters.
'agreed'+'to'='agreedto'
'agreedto' is an anagram of 'DEROGATE'.

(Other definitions for derogate that I've seen before include "Disparage" , "Allow a rule to be broken" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
