(b) the constitution of a community services entity.

(a) the Commonwealth direction and the NT direction each apply to the extent that they can operate concurrently; but
(b) to the extent that there is any inconsistency between the Commonwealth direction and the NT direction, the Commonwealth direction prevails.
