I've been given a hearing before the decision

Before the proposed decision they show you the file and you have between ten and fifteen days to respond.

What it is

The authority makes the file available to you just before drafting the proposed decision.

«Instruidos los procedimientos, e inmediatamente antes de redactar la propuesta de resolución, se pondrán de manifiesto a los interesados»

Art. 82 · Ley del Procedimiento Administrativo Común (Ley 39/2015). Verbatim quotation from the BOE, in Spanish. Official text in the BOE

How long you have

Between ten and fifteen days to submit arguments and documents.

«Los interesados, en un plazo no inferior a diez días ni superior a quince, podrán alegar y presentar los documentos y justificaciones que estimen pertinentes.»

If you don't want to respond

You can say so and the step is treated as completed.

«Si antes del vencimiento del plazo los interesados manifiestan su decisión de no efectuar alegaciones ni aportar nuevos documentos o justificaciones, se tendrá por realizado el trámite.»
