ArticlePublisher: Paris : IIAP, janv./mars 1996Revue Française D'Administration Publique 77, p. 143-147Abstract: The objective of british consular policy is to protect british citizens temporarily abroad and not to administer on a day basis the expatriate community. Productivity in the services provided is sought, as much from a financial point of view (self-financing through passports) as from a desire to achieve practical results. Productivity depends on obtaining agreement from higher ranks. To these worries over internal productivity one can add the interest in external communications which are harder to control. Communications need to be wholly transparent in order to convince the public of the usefulness and the relevance of the activities engaged upon
