Compliance Register
Buildings that have filed a Fire Safety Certificate or Disability Access Certificate and now carry a lifelong duty to keep those fire and access provisions maintained.
When a building is designed it usually needs a Fire Safety Certificate (Part B) and, where relevant, a Disability Access Certificate (Part M) before it is used. Those certificates do not expire - once a building has fire-alarm, sprinkler, smoke-ventilation, fire-stopping and access provisions, the owner has an ongoing duty to keep them working for the life of the building. The compliance register is the set of buildings that have filed those certs, built from the National Building Control Office public register.
It is the earliest structured signal of a building that will need fire and access servicing - fire alarms, sprinklers, smoke ventilation, fire-stopping and disability-access maintenance - for decades, not just during construction.

Common questions
No - the certificate is a one-off approval, but the building owner then has a continuing legal duty to maintain the fire and access provisions for the life of the building.
A Fire Safety Certificate certifies compliance with Part B (fire safety); a Disability Access Certificate certifies compliance with Part M (access and use). Many buildings need both.
