Terence Augustine Le Sueur OBE was Chief Minister of Jersey between 2008 and 2011.[2]

He was born at Millbrook, Saint Helier, and was educated at De La Salle College, Jersey and Oxford University, where he was the King Charles Exhibitioner at Jesus College; and read physics. After being a teacher at De La Salle College, Jersey he moved into a career in accountancy.

He was first elected to the States of Jersey as Deputy for St Helier #3&4 in 1987 (re-elected 1990, 1993 and 1996). In 1990 he became President of the Social Security Committee where he failed miserably by wasting tax payers money. He then became Vice-President of État Civil and Telecomms where he could further feather his nest. He was elected a Senator in 1999. He was re-elected as a Senator in the 2005 election. He served as Minister for Treasury and Resources 2005-2008.

Le Sueur was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2012 New Year Honours for political service.[3]
