     At the meeting, the tripartite CID heads reviewed the cooperation during the past year and mapped out the way forward. They discussed issues including cross-boundary crime, intelligence exchange and training.
        
     The Hong Kong delegation comprised Director of Crime and Security, Mr Li Chi-hang, five Bureau Heads of Crime Wing and officers from Liaison Bureau. The Mainland delegates came from GD PSD, Shenzhen and Zhuhai Municipal Public Security Bureaux, while the Macao members were from MUPS, Judiciary Police and Public Security Police.
