  "short_title": "Consular Fees 1989",
  "long_title": "This Order revokes and replaces the Consular Fees Order 1987 and subsequent amending Orders. It increases some consular fees by amounts that are intended to reflect, as far as possible, the cost of providing the services. The average increase is approximately 20%. It rationalises and clarifies the description of the services for which fees are charged. In particular, the introduction of the new United Kingdom passport in the European Community common format and the cessation of the issue of standard passports which include the particulars of a spouse, have necessitated a revision of the fees for Passports, Visas and Kindred Matters in Part II. The fees in respect of Shipping, Seamen and Kindred Matters in Part IX have been rationalised and reduced in number.",
