Organised filing near item for filing? (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fingernail

'item for filing?' is the definition.
(you might file your nails)

'organised filing near' is the wordplay.
'organised' indicates an anagram.
'filing'+'near'='filingnear'
'filingnear' anagrammed gives 'FINGERNAIL'.

(Other definitions for fingernail that I've seen before include "One in ten" , "extreme protection results" , "Part of hand" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
