Government report (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

state

paper

This clue is a double definition.

'government' is the first definition.
(the state can mean government authority)

'report' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for state that I've seen before include "E.g. Georgia" , "Pomp; nation" , "Declare - political unit" , "eg Iowa" , "Condition - sovereign political power" .)

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