Solution

The incorrect statement is:

a. Where a national statutory requirement is in conflict with a provision of the IFAC Code, the IFAC Code requirement prevails.

The reason this statement is incorrect is because in the event of a conflict between a national statutory requirement and a provision of the IFAC Code, the national statutory requirement would prevail, not the IFAC Code requirement. This is because national laws and regulations take precedence over professional standards.
