[lack of specific] legislation


Explanation:
Simple as that. Previsión legal means that there are existing laws for something.
Your sentence would read:

La falta de prevision legal especfica sobre las posibles excepciones al derecho de acceso favorecen la discrecionalidad y la opacidad

The lack of specific legislation on the possible exceptions to the right of access favor .....etc etc.

Framework, though acceptable, is "marco legal"; what your source text is saying is that there is no specific law on the subject. Cuestión de matices.
