Previously a Senator representing the Yonne department, he is set to re-join the Senate in June 2012, a month after leaving the Government.[1]

He was elected Senator for Yonne in 1986, and re-elected in 1995 and 2004; he was Chairman of the Union for a Popular Movement Senate caucus between 2008 and 2009. He has also served as President of the Yonne General Council between 1992 and 2008.
