Deciding who will lead the Policy and Resources Committee is at the top of the agenda for the new States Assembly.
The 38 deputies who were selected by Guernsey's voting population last month will be sworn in at the Royal Court today (1 July).
Eighteen deputies are returning to the States after a successful re-election; they'll be joined by 17 newcomers and three returning politicians.
All three deputies known to be vying for the top job are established politicians.
One of them is Deputy Lindsay de Sausmarez, who topped the polls on 18 June with more than 10,000 votes.
She was first elected in 2016 and has been leading the Environment & Infrastructure Committee.
If chosen, Deputy De Sausmarez would be the island's first female President of Policy and Resources.
Current P&R member and Former Chief Minister Deputy Jonathan Le Tocq is also running for the presidency.
He has served five terms in the States, first being elected in 2000, and is promising to bring 'a good degree of continuity' to proceedings.
Deputy Mark Helyar made clear in his manifesto that he would seek the top job.
He previously served as the Treasury Lead, but stepped down in late 2023 before a motion of no confidence was called in the senior committee.
Tomorrow, the other members of the senior committee should be selected.
Then on Friday, we will learn who will head up the other committees, such as Education, Sports and Culture, Home Affairs, Economic Development etc.
