Just out of curiosity, Dave, where are you located? I'm surprised your 
government is finding it necessary to intrude so much in internal affairs of 
a union.

I do the books for a Labour Council here on Vancouver Island, and we find that 
the general ledger, the cash flow report, and the various individual account 
books (chequing, political action, etc) are sufficient for our trustees to 
ensure that all the funds have been properly accounted for and properly 
spent. 

I presume your auditor is not able to load gnucash because he or she is using 
Windoze? I wonder if there's been any progress in getting a Windows version 
of Gnucash that they might be able to look at?

Otherwise, can you ascertain whether this is because the auditor is simply 
behind the times, or do the Generally Accepted Principles of Accounting (or 
whatever is the equivalent in your country) require this format?

Perhaps someone at your national central labour organization can assist.

In most countries selling harmful things like drugs is punishable.
Then how come people can sell Microsoft software and go unpunished?
