After the conclusion of the inquiry in 2012,  two urgent outcomes and 63 separate recommendations to the BC government were made. Among these included recommendations for additional funding to centres providing services for sex workers, as well as enhanced public transit along highway 16, sections of which are where many of the missing and murdered women had been abducted from. Following the inquiry the provincial government took action on many of the recommendations of the report. Some of these commitments included the establishment of a compensation fund for children of missing and murdered women, funding for safer public transit along highway 16, and investments in community orginizations to support sex workers. In the Ministry of Justice’s final update on the inquiry they stated that “action has been taken on over three quarters of the recommendations directed at the Province”.

The Missing Women Commission of Inquiry and its consequences eventually gave way to the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, sponsored by the Canadian federal government. This program began in 2016 with the goal of developing a more inclusive methodology as well as expanding the inquiry nationally. However this initiative has been criticized for similar reasons that the Missing Women Commission of Inquiry has.
