I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

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

'segment of bridge with reduced charge' is the wordplay.
'segment of bridge' becomes 'rubber' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'reduced' means to remove the last letter.
'charge' becomes 'stampede' (I've seen this before).
'stampede' with its last letter removed is 'stamped'.
'rubber'+'stamped'='RUBBER-STAMPED'
