Commission
The State Commission on Migration Issues (SCMI/Commission) was set up on 13 October 2010 on the basis of the Government's Ordinance No. 314. The Commission is the Government's consultative body to discuss and take decisions on various important issues related to migration management. The Commission comprising 9* government entities is chaired by the Ministry of Justice and co-chaired by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The Commission is a key platform for discussing migration-related issues and an instrument for coordinating competences falling under different bodies. To this end, the Commission is being provided with analytical and administrative support by the Secretariat (set up with the funding from the EU) at the Public Service Development Agency - a Legal Entity of Public Law under the Ministry of Justice.
To further activate the Commission's work in different directions, inside the Commission thematic working groups have been set up to work on Integration and Reintegration issues, Migration Risk Analysis, Migration Strategy, Reduction of Statelessness, Unified Migration Data Analytical System and Migration & Development.
In addition, in 2013, international and non-governmental organizations working in the field were granted a consultative status within the Commission to provide additional expertise and develop a format of cooperation. Thanks to their active cooperation with the Commission’s Secretariat, significant progress has been achieved in eradicating thematic overlap and ensuring targeted use of existing resources. In 2021 Public Defender's Office also joined SCMI with the consultative status.
