compensatory duty

Only compensatory duties at the borders of the European Union can re-establish a genuine and fair international exchange.

Though I knew neither, I waved back and kept walking, past the nearly full-klick band of the low bungalows where the admin draff families lived, past the cinqplexes that housed the singles on compensatory duty of some sort, past the residential transient blocs, and across the park toward the Deseret admin building.
