Patrick André Leclercq (born 2 August 1938) was the Minister of State of Monaco. He was chosen by Rainier III, Prince of Monaco in December 1999,[1] to replace Michel Lévêque, who retired a few days later.[1] He had previously served as France's consul / ambassador to Spain,[1] Egypt (Jordan[1][2]), Montreal (Canada),[1] as well as in the Foreign Ministry.[2]
Patrick André Leclercq was born in Lille,[1] attended the prestigious Lycée Janson-de-Sailly in Paris earning his Baccalauréat, graduated from Sciences Po and the École nationale d'administration (ENA).[1]
He was due to formally step down on 1 May 2005 and to be replaced by Jean-Paul Proust, but Proust's inauguration was deferred for a few weeks owing to the death of ruling Prince Rainier.[3]
