ProposedBillNon-bindingProyecto de Ley Orgánica para el buen uso y la gobernanza de la inteligencia artificial

Government bill adapting Spanish law to the EU AI Act: designates market surveillance authorities (mainly AESIA, plus the AEPD and the General Council of the Judiciary by area), sets the sanctions regime, creates an inventory of AI systems used in state administrative procedures and governs AI sandboxes. Failing to disclose deepfakes ('ultrasuplantaciones') or AI interaction is classed as a serious infringement.

Why it matters

Once passed, it sets who fines AI Act breaches in Spain and adds public-sector AI inventory duties.
