Here is an email sent to DAE on May 27th. They replied and basically said that all pool safety and regulations would be complied with before opening.

So now I have a few questions about the ever important POOL SAFETY.I thought the logic of having an expensive pool fence was safety. To help prevent drowning accidents if young children and infants try to wonder into the pool area unaccompanied by an adult. Or even dogs as I have seen dogs in the pool enclosure beforI notice that once again there are no self closing mechanisms on the pool gates. I have brought this to the attention of the community and DAE in the past and I hoped with the new pool fence, this important fixture will be included on all pool gates. If Self Closing hinges had been fitted, this would have been the easy way of course. Plenty of examples here https://www.amazon.com/s?k=self+closing+swimming+pool+doorsI am not sure if fence gates have child proof gate locks. Again, an example is here https://www.amazon.com/s?k=child+proof+swimming+pool+gate+locksI assume that 7 life safety rings will be installed being at least one per pool entry/exit.Also, will a pool sign be erected for both the top and the bottom pool which stipulates Swimming Pool Rules - especially use of inflatable devices.Finally, can you let me know about La Trinidad community insurance incase of any fatality ?Kind RegardsMr. HaynesPS. I’m sure you know this - but a couple of links here http://www.poolsafetyspain.com/Pool-Safety-Products/swimming-pool-accidenttal-death-safety-statistics.htmlhttps://urbytus.com/en/swimming-pool-regulations-for-spanish-urbanisations/
