Environmental law changes often, and it applies differently depending on your processes, substances and location — permits from the Environment Agency or Natural Resources Wales, waste duty of care, packaging regulations, and water discharge consents can all apply to a single manufacturing site. If you hold or want ISO 14001, a legal and compliance register is also a specific requirement of the standard.
We build and maintain legal registers that are genuinely usable — matched to your actual operations, not a generic downloaded list — and evaluate your compliance against each item so you know where you stand.
You hold or are implementing ISO 14001 and need a proper legal and compliance register to satisfy the standard.

Yes — ISO 14001 requires organisations to identify applicable legal and other requirements and evaluate compliance with them, which is exactly what a legal register documents.
At least annually, and whenever your processes, substances or site change, or when relevant legislation is amended.
We can identify which permits or licences apply and support you through the application process, working alongside the relevant regulator (the Environment Agency or Natural Resources Wales, depending on your location).
Compliance evaluation checks your performance against specific legal requirements one by one; a broader environmental audit looks at the whole management system, including but not limited to legal compliance.
