object of approval
Given the context you've provided in your discussion entry, I think "object of approval", or perhaps "subject of approval", would be most appropriate here.
Plenty of Google hits when you search for "object of approval" together with "building inspection".

Comment: "Thanks, Katie, and also to Bjorn, who provided the link I needed and after looking at the website in English found "subject of approval". Which I thought in the FIRSt place, but just found it so clumsy, especially in contexts further on!"

Patentable subject matter
Patentable, statutory or patent-eligible subject matter is subject matter which is susceptible of patent protection. The laws or patent practices of many countries provide that certain subject-matter is excluded from patentability, even if the invention is novel and non-obvious.
I hope this helps.

They also have an English page, but as always, I'd be careful and not read too much into it - most translated pages still are adequate at best.

However, why was this filed under Patents? It has absolutely nothing to do with this category, as far as I can see.
