Not a stranger in Béarn
This 62-year-old senior civil servant is not unknown in Béarn since he was director general of services (DGS) of the town hall of Pau and the Pau-Pyrénées agglomeration from 2014 to 2018. He then joined Strasbourg to manage services in the Grand-Est region.
Will François Bayrou remain mayor of Pau?
Appointed Prime Minister this Friday, December 13, François Bayrou should nevertheless remain mayor of Pau. A hypothesis which must be confirmed in the coming days. A municipal council is, again this Friday evening, scheduled for next Monday.
In the past, Nicolas Pernot also worked at the general council of Pyrénées-Atlantiques, from 1997 to 2000 as deputy general director, when François Bayrou was still its president. He had already followed him to Paris, during his brief experience as Keeper of the Seals in 2017.
The appointment of this good connoisseur of the mechanics of local authorities, who has always worked in the provinces, can be considered as a first wish to pacify relations between the State and the latter.
