Swedish term or phrase: åtgårcler
... som avgör vilka åtgårcler som ska vidtas för att gåldenåren ska betala inkassokostnaden.
In a document that seems intent on using words that seem to have bypassed most dictionaries and other sources. Can anyone help please.

measures, steps (i.e. "åtgärder")
Explanation:
I think that this is a typo or spelling error. The word "åtgärder" fits in with the rest of the sentence.

The word "gåldenåren" must be "gäldenären" = the debtor (i.e. the party who is debt to someone).
