I didn't get a clear response, but I think we can presume the clear answer in that case. Thank you.
I would like to ask another question.
The Main Estimates 2018-2019 show that Global Affairs Canada has set aside about $48 million in operating expenses in order to provide assistance to Canadians abroad. However, according to the 2016-2017 departmental report, the department forecasts that the total cost of the consular program will rise to $134 million in 2018-2019.
Can you explain the difference between those two amounts?
