Spanish term or phrase: ordenamiento jurídico

Just wanted to run this by some fellow Proz. Ordenamiento can mean "Code," and other things. But isn't this Spanish gobbledygook basically saying what I translated in English?

Source:
Para los aspectos no regulados en los documentos antes señalados, regirán las disposiciones del ordenamiento jurídico español que resulten de aplicación.
Target:
Those aspects not regulated by the previously noted documents shall be governed by the provisions of applicable Spanish law.

the applicable provisions stated in the Spanish legal system.

Explanation:
Otra opción para "ordenamiento jurídico" y redactar el final de la frase (el original en español es enredoso, como suele ocurrir con los textos legales... imagínate, hace un par de siglos los abogados pertenecían al selecto grupo de doctos en nuestro querido idioma, ellos y los sacerdotes... ahora, es para dar pena).

Thanks! Good catch. In the Spanish, the term "application" is modifying "provisions" and not the "law" itself. Though it's 6 of 1, half a dozen of the other.

I'll go with "the applicable provisions set forth in Spanish legislation."
Thanks to Otomo and Codrut also for their contributions!
