## Cleaning up imports

### Things to look out for in Mauritius

#### Annotations

Please do not change the wording of annotations. These should be left as they are and marked up as a remark/annotation.&#x20;

<figure><img src="/files/U73ZATagohwWcQ8Y30um" alt=""><figcaption><p>The highlited annotation should be marked up as shown below.</p></figcaption></figure>

{% code overflow="wrap" lineNumbers="true" %}

```markup
{{*[S. 2 amended by s. 3 of Act 21 of 2004; s. 3 of Act 34 of 2011 w.e.f. 1 January 2012.]}}
```

{% endcode %}

Certain annotations will appear in round brackets, such as in the example below. These should be marked up as an annotation/remark. &#x20;

<figure><img src="/files/lU489rMZw55D3jfBbdNZ" alt=""><figcaption><p>How this annotation should be marked up is shown below. </p></figcaption></figure>

{% code overflow="wrap" lineNumbers="true" %}

```markup
{{*[Subsec. (6) not in operation.]}}
```

{% endcode %}

#### Blank sections, subsections and paragraphs etc.

Some portions of Mauritius documents will be blank or empty. Below is an example of one such instance.&#x20;

<figure><img src="/files/1LK30mGWX3JUnHUlis5O" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

When a element that does not usually have a heading is blank, mark it up as it appears in the PDF. Blank paragraph (d) in the image above should be marked up as follows:

{% code lineNumbers="true" %}

```markup
PARA (d)
    -
```

{% endcode %}

Multiple blank subsections/ paragraphs or a range of blank subsections/ paragraphs, should be marked up as follows.

{% code lineNumbers="true" %}

```markup
SUBSEC (2) 
    -
SUBSEC (3) 
    -
SUBSEC (4) 
    -
```

{% endcode %}

Below is an example of a blank section and how it should be marked up.

<figure><img src="/files/3zs54YhQmHXoxq3ZoPAx" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% code lineNumbers="true" %}

```markup
SEC. 9 - ***
```

{% endcode %}

<figure><img src="/files/FaQBH5UuOJdvhpx4vc3d" alt=""><figcaption><p>Please ignore the warning that will appear.</p></figcaption></figure>

Below is an example of multiple blank sections or a range of blank sections,  and how they should be marked up.

<figure><img src="/files/JNhTPXvtgb4A54BEQtKu" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% code lineNumbers="true" %}

```markup
SEC 30. - ***
SEC 31. - ***
SEC 32. - ***
```

{% endcode %}
