Re:  following-sibling problem
 <xsl:when test="following-sibling::ReferenceReasonText[1]">


   following-sibling::ReferenceReasonText

selects all following sibling ReferenceReasonText nodes, so

  following-sibling::ReferenceReasonText[1]

selects the first of these.

The boolean test will be true if this node set is non empty, so
in a test the [1] isn't doing anything ,the tests "is there a following
sibling" and "is there a first following sibling"  are the same.

You don't want the first ReferenceReasonText node, you want teh first
element node and then test if that's a ReferenceReasonText


   <xsl:when test="following-sibling::*[1][self::ReferenceReasonText]">
