Spanish term

actuación + dotación

En el contexto de un contrato legal inmobiliario, describiendo claúsulas para la construcción de tal, las reglas para la registación de tal...
Ejemplos de uso:
- En las actuaciones de dotación
- fuera de la actuación que este demande

I know it is very little context to give.
Would you use "proceedings" for "actuación"? It sort of fits but I am somehow not entirely happy with this translation

"actuaciones de dotación" > measures to provide / procedures for providing / process of equipping

... you also need to mention what it is that is being talked about. English, being a descendant of German, is a very concrete "nails and tacks" language compared with Spanish and it's necessary to reduce everything (except philosophy of course!) to concrete terms.

You can collect a little array of English expressions that can be used to translate your terms, and alternate them throughout the translation. :-)

action/s + provision

I usually translate "actuacion" as "action/activity" although your "proceedings" sounds good too, if rather legalistic. As for "dotacion" , "provision" is a very general coverall term I tend to use for this type of text, although Oxford offers: dotación f
1 a (frml) (de dinero, equipamiento): una dotación de ayuda de
500 millones an aid package of $500 million, aid totalling
500 million; piden dotaciones más amplias para la
universidad they are asking for better funding for the
university; el premio tiene una dotación de $50.000 the
prize is worth $50,000
b (de personal): la dotación de profesores del colegio esinsuficiente the school is understaffed; una dotación de
5 0 bomberos a team of 50 firefighters
c (Náut) crew
2 (Col): botas/armas de dotación militar army-issue boots/
weapons, military-issue boots/weapons
