648.2. For the purposes of section 194, the Government, every municipality and every Indigenous entity having entered into an agreement under the second paragraph of section 597 must deduct from the amount corresponding to the total of the fines and fees they have respectively collected and for which a notice provided for in article 365 of the Code of Penal Procedure (chapter C-25.1) was sent to the Société, an amount corresponding to the product obtained by multiplying the amount fixed by regulation of the Government by the number of notices they have sent to the Société, pursuant to article 365 of the Code of Penal Procedure. The terms and conditions for the payment of these sums shall be set by the Société. Where the total of the sums paid to the Société by the Government, municipalities and Indigenous entities under the first paragraph over the course of one year is lower than the costs borne by the Société for the purposes of section 194 over the course of the same year, the difference is carried forward to the following year for payment. Where the total of these sums is higher than these costs, the difference is deducted from the costs borne the following year.
