AFP chairs Police Consultative Group on Missing Persons meeting
PCGMP meeting

From 6 to 8 November 2024, the National Missing Persons Coordination Centre (NMPCC) and the Western Australia Police Force (WAPOL) co-hosted the Police Consultative Group on Missing Persons (PCGMP) meeting in Perth. The PCGMP provides a national platform to identify issues and trends specific to missing persons and ensures a consistent approach and response from police and search agencies across the country.  

By bringing together all state, territory, and New Zealand missing persons units, the PCGMP develops, maintains, and reviews national policies and procedures related to missing persons in Australia. This collaborative effort ensures a unified and effective response to missing persons cases nationwide. 

The meeting explored various capabilities and new initiatives to assist with long-term missing persons investigations and unidentified human remains cases.
