In the 2018 AE Reporter year, the Accounting Policy Note in the Notes to the Financial Statements refers to the Associations Incorporation Act 1987 instead of the Associations Incorporation Act 2015.

This issue occurs for Association entities where the State of Incorporation is Western Australia (WA).w

We're aware of this issue and we're looking into a solution.

(DB.#EntityDetails.ClientDetails.StateIncorporation="WA",DB.#EntityDetails.ClientDetails.StateIncorporation=
"Western Australia"),"Associations Incorporation Act 1987","")} to refer to "Associations Incorporation Act 2015".
For example:
(DB.#EntityDetails.ClientDetails.StateIncorporation="WA",DB.#EntityDetails.ClientDetails.StateIncorporation=
