Mr Le Marquand (55), who has been the Island’s Magistrate for eight years, is a former Judicial Greffier. Policy He told the Magistrate’s Court yesterday that he wanted to complete a number of tasks, including a review of sentencing policy before stepping down. And the timing of Mr Le Marquand’s departure before next year’s elections, and his comments in court that he hoped to enter another sphere of public life, will fuel the speculation that he will be a Senatorial candidate in 2008. In an interview last year, Mr Le Marquand said he did not discount a political career when he finished his current job.
