11 Inconsistency between this Regulation and codes, standards or rules

(1) If all or part of a code, standard or rule, made in or outside Australia, relating to dangerous goods or to transport by road or rail is applied or adopted by, or is incorporated in, this Regulation and the code, standard or rule is inconsistent with this Regulation, this Regulation prevails to the extent of the inconsistency.

(2) Despite subsection (1), if a provision that is applied, adopted by or incorporated in this Regulation uses a term that is defined in both the relevant code, standard or rule and this Regulation, the provision is to be interpreted as if the term had the meaning set out in the code, standard or rule, unless the contrary intention appears.
