State Agency Official State Gazette
On 1 June the provisions contained in Law 15/2014, of 16 September, on the streamlining of the Public Sector and other administrative reform measures, to create a Single Bulletin Board through the “Official State Gazette”.
From this date on, the notification announcements published by any Public Administration where the parties interested in a procedure are unknown, the place or means of notification is not known or the personal notification was attempted but was not possible, must be obligatorily published in the BOE. Prior to this and on an optional basis, the Administrations may publish an announcement in the corresponding regional gazettes.
This new regulation applies regardless of the Administration with competency to carry out the notification or the area it concerns. This way, it is enough to consult the BOE so that any citizen can know if they have a pending notification.
That is why, from 1 June 2015, the BOE has a new “Notifications supplement” in which all the notification announcements are published (Royal Decree 181/2008). In this supplement, since 1 November 2015, notification announcements published by the Registrars of Property, Trade and Assets, as well as Notaries, in accordance with the provisions of the second additional provision of the Law 13/2015.
This supplement is freely accessible on the website of the AEBOE https://www.boe.es for a period of 3 months from publication. Once this period has transpired, it will be necessary to have the verification code of the corresponding announcement to access its content.
This is the means by which all the Public Administrations, from 1 June 2015, should communicate to citizens and companies those administrative decisions that affect them and that could not be notified personally. It consists of a new “Notifications supplement” that forms part of the Official State Gazette.
Until now, the Administration has always provided a personal notification to the interested party of an administrative procedure and if this notification is unsuccessful for reasons not attributable to the Administration, a notification bulletin must be published in the form of a notification announcement.
From 1 June 2015, all of these announcements will be published in the “Notifications Supplement” of the BOE.
Notification announcements may continue to appear, if the Administrations decided to do so, in the regional gazettes or specific electronic bulletin boards, but this must always be posted in the BOE, which will be the last to publish same and such publications shall be the basis for terms.
This way, through a single BOE consultation, citizens can know if they have any pending notification, regardless of which Administration carries it out or the material in question.
