32 Directors of incorporated legal practice and pro bono services

(2) Subrule (1) is declared to be a Corporations legislation displacement provision for the purposes of section 5G of the Corporations Act.
Note : Section 5G of the Corporations Act provides that, if a State or Territory law declares a provision of a State or Territory law to be a Corporations legislation displacement provision, any provision of the Corporations legislation with which the State or Territory provision would otherwise be inconsistent does not apply to the extent necessary to avoid the inconsistency.
