"...its management comes under/falls within the legal support(?) of the law governing non-profit organisations and associations'? For the UK. Thanks!

Explanation:
...followed by whatever you are going to call the law or act.

I think versions closer to the terms of the original sound very stilted and awkward, and that this is a reasonably natural way of saying what it actually means.

There's no need to put "legal provisions" for "sustentación legal", since the law is mentioned just afterwards, though you could; "legal" is redundant really.

Just seen that Simon suggested "running" before me. I think it's better than "management", though that would be OK. But mainly I think it works much better with a verb than a noun: simpler and clearer in English.

Some people don't like "in accordance with". I think it works well, but if you prefer you could simplify even further and say "run according to".

Ah, in that case I suppose "management" will have to suffice. The only other option I can think of is "running". Anyway my main point is you can dispense with "legally supported" or the like, because "falls with the framework" implies exactly that.

Asker: Thanks, Simon. 'Wordy' indeed, and a few full stops here and there wouldn´t go amiss either. The problem with using 'administration' here is that it is mentioned further on in the sentence, "para su administración cuenta con una Junta Directiva Central..."
