Note from asker:
| Thanks for your explanation, this makes it clearer. I think in an Australian context the equivalent English term would be 'acting' (as suggested by another answer- ie. undertaking a role temporarily. |
Peer comment(s):
| agree |
Archipelago (X)
: Yes, "extraordinary" in this context means (according to dictionary.com) "(of an official, employee, etc.) outside of or additional to the ordinary staff; having a special, often temporary task or responsibility".
