The Ministry of Justice has taken another step regarding mediation and its state regulation through Law 5/2012 of civil and commercial mediation. It is a new ministerial order, the Order JUS/746/2014, of May 7, which has already been officially published in the BOE on May 9 and has come into force one day after its publication.
The preparation of this order responds to the need to expand and develop articles 14 and 21 of the Royal Decree 980/2013, December 13, which are the following:
Art. 14 – Information to be provided by mediators
Art. 21 – Information to provide to the Registry
Although these articles contain the general aspects related to the information required regarding registration in the Registry of Mediators, the order details more specifically what the electronic documents that must accompany the information provided by applicants for registration through the Ministry's electronic headquarters.
Furthermore, as the main novelty, it establishes the creation of the file of mediators and mediation institutions, which is incorporated into Annex I of the Order JUS/1294/2003, of April 30, which determines the files with personal data of the department and its public bodies.
Although there have been no significant legislative changes, this is important information that must be taken into account by any mediator or mediation institution interested in accessing the Registry with a view to regulating their mediation activity and subsequently obtaining benefits thanks to the advertising thereof.
The Registry of Mediators is now open to registration since April 1, 2014, and is expected to become fully operational starting June 1.
