The eighth Ministerial Conference of the Bali Process on People Smuggling, Trafficking in Persons and Related Transnational Crime was held on 9 - 10 February at the Adelaide Convention Centre. The Steering Group was co-chaired by Lucienne Manton, Australian Ambassador for People Smuggling and Human Trafficking Foreign Minister Wong and Pak Tri Triyati, Indonesian Director-General for Multilateral Affairs

The Steering Group sets the agenda for Ministerial Conferences, and includes Ministerial and Senior Official level representation from Australia, Indonesia, New Zealand and Thailand and senior representatives of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).

The group also directs changes to the Bali Process governance – for example, determining any expansion to the Ad Hoc Group membership, and acts as an oversight mechanism across the Bali Process’ activities and priorities, with the Ad Hoc Group reporting to Bali Process Co-Chairs through the Steering Group.
