I note in particular that regarding the 10-year passport, $25 consular fees continue to apply. We may assume that people who opt for the 10-year passport will be making half as many passport applications. This will thus significantly reduce the amounts that are transferred to consular affairs. Can you tell us a bit more about that, please? </p>",

Je constate notamment qu'avec le passeport de 10 ans, il y a toujours des frais consulaires de 25 $. On peut pr\u00e9sumer que les gens qui optent pour le passeport de 10 ans feront des demandes de passeport deux fois moins souvent. Cela va donc r\u00e9duire de fa\u00e7on significative les montants qui sont transf\u00e9r\u00e9s aux affaires consulaires. Pourriez-vous nous en dire un peu plus l\u00e0-dessus, s'il vous pla\u00eet?</p>"
