Effect is perfect (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

complete

This clue is a double definition.

'effect' is the first definition.
(I know that complete is a kind of accomplish)

'perfect' is the second definition.
(perfect and requiring no additional changes)

'is' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for complete that I've seen before include "Having all the necessary parts" , "Intact" , "Full" , "Whole, nothing missing" , "Finish; whole" .)

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