The changes sees the Force move from four command areas to six in a bid to reduce the span of command of the chief superintendents in local policing, allowing them to work more effectively with our partners and deliver more effective victim-centred policing. North Command Area will consist of GMP s Bury and Rochdale Districts, and be overseen by Chief Superintendent Chris Allsop, while West Command Area will now consist of GMP s Bolton and Wigan Districts, and be overseen by Chief Superintendent Stuart Ellison.
