Supported or delayed (4,2)

I believe the answer is:

held up

This clue is a double definition.

'supported' is the first definition.
('hold up' can be a synonym of 'support')

'delayed' is the second definition.
('hold up' can be a synonym of 'delay')

'or' acts as a link.

(Another definition for held up that I've seen is " Delayed".)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
