Local fix

• NA
  

Problem summary

• When creating a policy document using the policy authoring
  wizard in the web UI, some paths through the wizard cause the UI
  to hang after selecting the 'Publish' button.
  

Problem conclusion

• Some policy domains allow "flag" properties to be added to the
  policy elements. These properties have no values. The code was
  not correctly checking for these properties and so did not
  handle them correctly resulting in a 'null' error.
  
  The code has been modified to correctly handle properties
  without values.
  
  This fix is targeted for inclusion in fix pack 5 for WSRR v7.0
  and fix pack 1 for WSRR v7.5.
