This is from the abstract of a paper on the recovery of State aid:
En este trabajo se analizan los problemas planteados por la inexistencia de vías procedimentales específicas en el Derecho español para la recuperación de ayudas estatales de carácter tributario, se exponen las razones que abogan por la necesidad de su introducción y se examinan de forma crítica los proyectados procedimientos de recuperación de ayudas de carácter fiscal contenidos en el anteproyecto de ley de reforma de la Ley General Tributaria
Not sure if "reform bill" is the correct term .... thanks in advance

preliminary draft of a bill to amend the General Tax Act
"Proyecto de ley" is a bill; "anteproyecto de ley" is the stage before that. It's somewhat similar to a white paper in the UK, but I wouldn't use that term; I'd call it a preliminary draft of a bill, which is how Thomas West translates it in his dictionary.
"Reformar", applied to an existing law like this, means "amend".
There are various ways you might translate "Ley General Tributaria", but "General Tax Act" will do, I think; that's what the Spanish Agencia Tributaria uses in its English-language pages, and so do a number of others. "General Tax Law" or "General Law on Taxation" are fine if you prefer "Law" for "Ley".

First-Stage, Short-Form General Taxes Act Reform Bill
Tom West III's dictionary emphasizes the preliniary angle, but Alcaraz & Hughes doesn't, namely simply calls the anteproyecto de ley a Bill.
I agree with Charles D. that this would be a White Paper - usually long vs. the weblinked 'succinct' or skeleton form (skeleton bill is a bill of exchange), or even tentatively a 'First Reading' going through Parliament.
Also, on the footing of the UK General Taxes management Act, it is unlikely to be a single tax that is being revamped.
