After changing jobs, Mike reluctantly decided that life is too busy to continue as Bailli - a position he has held very successfully for the last three and half years. However he hopes still to attend the majority of Bailliage events - business permitting. Janet Evins who as Vice Chancelier, has been deputising for Mike in recent times has stepped up to be the new Bailli.

Janet has a background of holding office in a number of voluntary organisations over the years and so will take the new responsibility in her stride. Additionally she brings the experience of the Chaîne in many other countries and cultures to the role. She says ‘I shall certainly do my best to follow in the footsteps of Mike, and Philip before him, and hope to keep up the excellent standard already established’.
