Article 83. Public information.
2. For this purpose, an announcement must be published in the corresponding official newspaper so that any natural or legal person can examine the file, or the part of the file that is agreed upon.
The announcement must indicate the place of exhibition, and in any case it must be available to people who request it through electronic means at the corresponding electronic headquarters, and must determine the deadline for formulating allegations, which in no case can be less than twenty days.

However, those who present allegations or observations in this procedure have the right to obtain from the Administration a reasoned response, which may be common to all allegations that raise substantially the same issues.
4. In accordance with the provisions of the laws, the public administrations can establish other forms, means and courses of participation of the people, directly or through the organizations and associations recognized by the law in the procedure in which the administrative acts are issued ."
