Whereas this authority is acting
As Phil says, each of these paragraphs beginning with "Que..." is part of the recitals, following from "Considerando".
You could title the section as "Recitals" and then start each of the following paragraphs (whereas clauses) with "Whereas...."
The part reading "se actúa" here is referring to the authority issuing the resolution.
I'd translate it as "Whereas this authority is acting in accordance with the powers blah blah..."
Generally, the format goes like this:
Whereas... (CONSIDERANDO: Que...)
Whereas... (Que...)
Whereas... (Que...)
Now, therefore... (Por ello...)
If you look up the words "whereas," "now therefore" and "resolution," you'll find some guides on resolution structure.

That action is being taken
My reading:
'That action is being taken under the powers granted to it [the Directorate]'
--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 44 mins (2020-12-11 11:34:52 GMT)
--------------------------------------------------
From a quick read of the preamble, it appears that the references to "it" all go back to the "Dirección."
--------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------
Going back to your earlier question, I think that "Disposición" should be translated as 'Directive'. I may have agreed with 'provision', but here the word is being used differently in Spanish.

Spanish term (edited):
Que se actúa
This decision is given
You have to look at this in its wider context. It's the last in a series of recitals, beginning with "Considerando" (Whereas), as follows:
...Que se actúa en ejercicio de las facultades conferidas por el Decreto Nº 1490/92 y sus modificatorias.
Por ello,
EL ADMINISTRADOR NACIONAL DE LA ADMINISTRACIÓN NACIONAL DE MEDICAMENTOS, ALIMENTOS Y TECNOLOGÍA MÉDICA
DISPONE:
This is followed by the text of the decision, which is a ban on the sale of a product.
You should leave out the "que", which follows on from "considerando".
--------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------
"y sus modificatorias" is very often rendered as "as amended".

These actions are taken
Given that the source is a list of actions to which this (last) statement refers (hence plural) listed under a collective "Whereas" (Considerando), which essentially includes the "That".
