We all do wrong if permitted (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

allowed

'permitted' is the definition.
('allow' can be a synonym of 'permit')

'we all do wrong' is the wordplay.
'wrong' is an anagram indicator.
'we'+'all'+'do'='wealldo'
'wealldo' is an anagram of 'ALLOWED'.

'if' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for allowed that I've seen before include "Permitted and granted" , "Acknowledged" , "Gave permission" , "Legitimate" , "Owned" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
