根据皇室专家迪基·阿比比特维斯(Dickie Arbiterwith)的说法,因为没有新的计划,梅根·马克尔和哈里王子的家庭将继续受到武装保护,“哈里王子在部队服役以来,一直是(恐怖分子的)一个高价值的目标,所以这笔费用(安保费)将由英国民众来支出。”(the cost will be paid for by the British public due to Prince Harry being a high-value target since he served in the military.)
他还补充说道:“英国的安全基金一直由纳税人来提供资金,然而,由于哈里王子曾经在部队服役,是一个极大的风险,他是恐怖分子的目标,所以必须得到保护。”(It is the British taxpayers who are going to be funding the security, It will have to happen because Harry has served in the army and is a risk. Prince Harry is a terrorist target and he has to be protected.)
迪基·阿比比特维斯说:“加拿大政府必须在内阁一级做出决定,并在国会进行辩论,然后才能发放这笔钱。”(The [Canadian] government will have to decide at the Cabinet-level and debate it in Parliament before the money is released)
财政部长比尔·莫诺(Bill Morneau)说:“加拿大尚未决定,是否支付哈里王子和梅根的安全费用。”(Canada hasn’t decided if it would cover security costs for Prince Harry and Meghan.)
