Generalitat Interest Group Register (REGIA)
From 17-02-2022 00:00:00h
What is
The purpose of the Generalitat Interest Group Register is to facilitate the public identification and control over the lobbying activities carried out by interest groups in relation to the Public Administration in the Comunitat Valenciana.
Lobbying activity is considered to be any direct or indirect communication, oral or written, with public officials, with the aim of influencing public decision making or the processes involved in drafting and implementing public policies, regulatory projects or parliamentary initiatives, carried out on behalf of a private or non-governmental entity or organised group for the benefit of its own interests or those of third parties.
Interest groups are legal persons, bodies, organisations, platforms, networks and (in the cases provided for by law) natural persons who, whether or not they have legal personality, carry out the lobbying activity.
- Generalitat Law 25/2018, of 10 December, regulating the activity of interest groups in the Comunitat Valenciana
- Consell (Regional Government) Decree 172/2021, of 15 October, which implements Generalitat Law 25/2018, of 10 December, regulating the activity of interest groups in the Comunitat Valenciana
Who is it addressed to
a) Interest groups engaged in influencing activities.
b) Interest group representatives engaged in influencing activities.
How to process
The application for registration must be submitted before holding meetings or having contact with a public official in order to carry out lobbying activities.
The application for registration is made by accessing the online procedure using the electronic certificate of the person or entity concerned.
Once the application has been submitted, a registration certificate is automatically issued, which entitles the holder to carry out lobbying activities, but which is considered to be provisional. The competent body must issue a final decision within two months of the submission of the application. If no express decision has been taken by the end of this period, the registration becomes definitive.

If the application is made with the digital certificate of a natural person, documentation must be provided that accredits the representation of the organisation that intends to register as an interest group.

Nor when the representation is recorded in the Representatives Register maintained by the Comunitat Valenciana Technology and Electronic Certification Agency (ACCV).
Resolution
The resolution does not put an end to the administrative process and an appeal may be lodged against it to the head of the Conselleria responsible for matters relating to interest groups, within a period of one month from the day following the notification of an explicit decision, or at any time...
