Etterlevbare

Etterlevbare is a Swedish term that translates to "enforceable" or "compliance-ready" in English. It refers to the quality or state of something, such as a law, regulation, contract, or technical standard, being capable of being effectively implemented and adhered to in practice. The concept is central to legal, administrative, and technical contexts where the practical application and observance of rules or specifications are paramount.

For a law or regulation to be etterlevbar, it must be clear, unambiguous, and practically implementable by the relevant authorities and individuals. This involves considering resources, enforcement mechanisms, and the potential impact on society. If a regulation is too complex, vague, or lacks the necessary means for enforcement, it may not be considered etterlevbar.

In the realm of contracts, etterlevbarhet means that the terms are sufficiently precise and the obligations are achievable, allowing for legal recourse if breaches occur. Similarly, in technical standards, it implies that the specifications can be met by manufacturers and service providers, and that the resulting products or services function as intended and can be integrated into existing systems. The overall goal of etterlevbarhet is to ensure that rules and standards are not merely theoretical but have a tangible and positive effect in the real world.
