Thanks Bob. Sorry I didn't get back on this before, but I've only had a chance to look at it again.
I found in the log a line "Ignoring disallowed property" which referred to one the properties used to determine whether the custom action was running or not. It was also clear from the log that the custom action was not being executed. By making this property which determined if the custom action an or not a "secure" property (Secure="yes" in the Property tag), the problem was solved.
