More than adequate, a parliamentarian the Spanish recalled (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ample

'more than adequate' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a parliamentarian the spanish recalled' is the wordplay.
'parliamentarian' becomes 'MP' (Member of Parliament).
'the spanish' becomes 'el' ('the' in Spanish).
'recalled' shows that the letters should be reversed in order (to recall can mean to bring something back).
'el' back-to-front is 'le'.
'a'+'mp'+'le'='AMPLE'

(Other definitions for ample that I've seen before include "Plentiful; large" , "Plenty, more than enough" , "Liberal" , "Spacious" , "Big" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
