We work with Service Canada, which is the service delivery arm for getting passports to Canadians. We're exceeding our service delivery standards and have been for a number of years.
A couple of initiatives have happened, such as the online passport applications for adult renewals. We are continuing to move forward with that, and it is showing great progress in making it both easier for people to get their passport and speedier, given that it's directly online.
The other thing I would say is that the resources in the supplementary estimates are meant to address a lingering fiscal concern in the revolving fund for passports as a result of the drop in applications that occurred during the pandemic. There was a significant decline in the revenue coming in on passports while expenses, obviously, were still being incurred in terms of delivering the service. This will situate the fund in a position going forward that will enable us to continue to assure that we can meet service standards going forward.
