Tenure of divisional commanders
Dear West Yorkshire Police,
I hope you're well!
I am writing to you under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to request the following information from you.
Please may you provide me with the following data:
1. The appointment dates of previous divisional commanders for all GMP neighborhood policing divisions (for instance, Bradford North, Bradford South, Calderdale, City and Holbeck, Keighley, Killingbeck, Kirklees, Wakefield, North East Leeds, North West Leeds). I would like this data for appointments made from 2000 to 2019. I only need information on appointment dates.
I would like the information to be in excel (xlsx) format. For instance, for Calderdale division, commander A was appointed in January 2nd 2001, followed by commander B who was appointed in April 1st 2003. When there is a change in structure of division (for instance, when North East Leeds, North West Leeds merged into leeds), I would like the appointment dates for the divisions from 2000 until when they were merged. If data protection reasons mean their names cannot be shared, then I only request information on the appointment dates of each different divisional commander.
If requesting this information from 2000 to 2019 exceeds the costs, then I kindly ask for the information from 2003 to 2017.
Yours faithfully,
Eddy Zou

Dear Freedom of Information,
Thank you for your reply! Could I ask if it is possible to share the name or a common identifier of each unique commander/person in the document. For instance, if names cannot be shared, could you label the commander ID for each commander. As you have stated there could be more than one person with the same post at the same district.
Yours sincerely,
Eddy Zou
