## Scope and provenance
Content is source-checked, with specialist editorial sign-off pending. Preserve each record's jurisdiction, source-check date, source URLs and limitations. A topic match is not a legal determination. Great Britain excludes Northern Ireland. Fire-safety frameworks differ across England/Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Do not invent required testing intervals or provider recommendations.
