Usually used in some such phrase as "His action was not inconsistent with school policy," or "That conclusion is not inconsistent with the evidence," the expression is a hedge, a waffle, an evasion. It means that the subject does not appear to violate whatever rules or guidelines we are working under, while falling short of asserting that it obeys those rules or guidelines.
