Catalogue banned at the last minute (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tabulate

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

'banned at the last minute' is the wordplay.
'banned' becomes 'tabu' (I've seen this before).
'at the last minute' becomes 'late' (I've seen this in other clues).
'tabu'+'late'='TABULATE'

(Other definitions for tabulate that I've seen before include "with flattened structures" , "Arrange in order" , "Arrange (data) in lines and columns" , "Arrange in table or list" , "Catalogue" .)

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