Spanish term or phrase: ADECUACIÓN AL ORDEN DE COMPETENCIAS
Term appears in a Spanish government memorandum on powers relating to charges, investment, etc., for renewable energies, and is a heading for the following:

La presente orden se adecua al orden competencia', al dictarse al amparo de lo establecido en los artículos 1491.13a y 25a, que atribuyen al Estado la competencia exclusiva en relación con las bases y coordinación de la planificación general de la actividad económica y en materia de bases del régimen minero y energético. respectivamente.

I can't find the appropriate equivalent, any help gratefully received.

Explanation:
se adecua al orden competencia(s) > complies with jurisdictional priority/ is JP-compliant

As the pre-Brexit buffoons running my erstwhile Central London translation office used to order - freelance and inhouse translators - in a round-robin diktat: long-winded Romance-lingo phrases need to be condensed and packed into short, but hard-hitting Anglo-Saxon word pile-ups.

is in line with the allocation of responsibilities


Explanation:
Orden competencial = orden de competencias = distribución de responsabilidades = allocation of responsibilities.

It is Spanish legalese i.e. administrative speak. As for “adecuación/se adecua”, you can use a verb such as “correspond to” or “be in line with”.

Here an example from the Spanish Tribunal Constitucional with regard to the Catalonia problem:

Explanation:
(to show how this language is used, here is an example from Canadian law)

Distribution of Powers. ... Distribution of powers refers to the division of legislative powers and responsibilities between the two orders of government — federal and provincial — outlined in the Constitution Act, 1867.
