enforcement measures
Regulatory compliance mechanisms
Enforcement measures are actions taken to ensure compliance with laws, regulations, or agreements.
These range from warnings and fines to sanctions, seizures, or legal prosecution.
The term appears frequently in international contexts—The UN Security Council authorized enforcement measures against the regime—and in regulatory settings where agencies compel adherence to rules.
