(1)  If all or part of a code, standard or rule (whether 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, these regulations, and the code, standard or rule is inconsistent with these regulations, these regulations prevail to the extent of the inconsistency.

(2)  Despite subregulation (1) , if any provision that is applied, adopted by or incorporated in these regulations uses a term that is defined in both the relevant code, standard or rule and in these regulations, 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.
