Lease agreements
Good morning,
I am struggling with a suitable way to express "en cuanto Administración Pública" in the following sentece. It is from a the Bond clause of a lease agreement.
De conformidad con el artículo 36.6 de la LAU y el artículo 81 de la Ley 8/1997, de 23 de diciembre, de la Comunidad Autónoma de Andalucía, la Arrendataria, en cuanto Administración Pública, esta exceptuada de la obligación de prestar fianza.
I was thinking "as far as the public administration is concerned".....
Thanks
Simon

Actually, I thin it should just be 'AS'.
En cuanto = as
En cuant a = as regards

being a Public Administration
This is only really a variation on José Lozano's suggestion of "since it is a" with which I fundamentally agree.
