Spanish term

mediante la oportuna diligencia

Divorce Deed (Spain)

I'm wondering about the appropriate translation of "diligencia" here.

Is this basically saying "I will agree to carry out the timely enquiries?

Many thanks in advance.

"ACEPTO yo, el Notario, el requerimiento que cumplimentaré mediante la oportuna diligencia."

Existe la frase "diligencia debida"/"debida diligencia" que es sinónimo de "oportuna diligencia" (due diligence / due care)

in the corresponding/appropriate notarial instrument

In this context I don’t believe that “diligencia” refers to diligence, timely performance or procedures in general, but rather to a type of notarial instrument (additional context might indicate which type). Typical “diligencias notariales” include “protocolizaciones,” “autenticación de firmas,” “levantamiento de protestos,” “actas de donación,” “disolución de la sociedad de gananciales,” “requerimientos,” “apertura y publicación de testamentos cerrados”, etc. See many more types here:
https://www.slideshare.net/utplgestion/diligencias-notariale...

diligencia f.
Acta donde consta la forma y circunstancias en que se ejecuta un acuerdo o decisión judicial. Asímismo, hay diligencias notariales, en las que se hace constar en un documento ya preexistente una actuación posterior en el tiempo.
Ejemplo. Se otorga un acta notarial por la que se solicita del notario que haga un requerimiento a una persona. El notario lo hace al día siguiente de la fecha del acta. Esta actuación se refleja en el acta a continuación, por medio de una diligencia con la firma del notario.
http://glosario.notariado.org/?do=terms&letter=D

¿Cuántas clases de documentos notariales existen?
Los Documentos Notariales son, en principio, protocolares o extraprotocolares, según sus originales se extiendan en el protocolo o fuera de él. Los primeros consisten en escrituras públicas y actas notariales o protocolozaciones consignadas en el protocolo del notario. Los segundos son las reproducciones de Instrumentos Públicos, certificaciones de documentos, piezas de expedientes o inscripciones, traducciones, actas, diligencias y otras actuaciones que el Notario público, autorizado por ley, extiende fuera del protocolo.
