Good afternoon Wayne,
Please find attached GMP’s response to your FOI request. Apologies for the extended delay you’ve experienced in receiving your response. I do hope this hasn’t caused too much of an inconvenience.

Dear Greater Manchester Police,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.
Firstly, the document you have sent me belongs to a defunct authority.
Secondly, the document you have sent me has zero relevance to paragraph 13.25 of the IPCC Statutory Guidance pursuant to the Police Reform Act 2002 which governs Chief Constable powers. The document you have sent me is to do with the Commissioner's powers pursuant to the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011.
I never requested the Commissioner's delegations Scheme. Even if I had, that document is not valid anymore.
Please confirm or deny, pursuant to s.1(1) FOIA whether the Chief Constable has a Scheme in accordance with paragraph 13.25 IPCC SG or not.
Yours faithfully,
Wayne Leighton
