Homonym: Interim Measure (Temporary)
An "Interim Measure" refers to a temporary action or decision taken to address a situation while a more permanent solution is being developed. These measures are often used in legal, environmental, or organizational contexts to ensure safety, compliance, or stability until a final resolution is reached.
For example, in a legal case, a court may impose an interim measure to protect the rights of parties involved while the case is still pending. Similarly, in environmental management, government agencies might implement interim measures to mitigate risks while conducting further assessments or planning long-term strategies.
