Life

Jacques-Yves Henckes became a member of the DP for which he was a lay judge on the municipal council in Luxembourg City from 1975 to 1993 . He moved into the Chambre des Députés for the first time from February 7 to June 5, 1984, but lost his seat in the elections at that time on June 17, 1984. A year later, on October 10, 1985, he moved in again remained there until the elections in 1989.

Jacques-Yves Henckes resigned from the DP and was a co-founder of the ADR , which initially called itself “Action Committee 5/6” ( German Action Committee 5/6). In 1993 he was able to regain his town council seat on the ADR list. Since the ADR was founded in 1989, he also sat in the Chambre des Députés without interruption until 2013 . At the end of 2012 there was a dispute with the ADR party leadership. Henckes announced that he was leaving the party. However, he did not give up his parliamentary mandate and so sat as an independent parliamentarian in the Chambre des Députés until the early parliamentary elections. He then did not take part in the early parliamentary elections in 2013 , which meant that he was eliminated from parliament.

In March 2011, Henckes was sentenced by the court for negligent homicide to a suspended sentence of three months, a one-year ban on driving on probation, and a fine. A family member was killed in a fatal traffic incident in which Henckes was to blame.
