Stephen Mark Harding QC, LL.B was Her Majesty's Attorney General for the Isle of Man and ex officio Member of the Legislative Council from 2011 to 2016.[1]

He was suspended from this role and charged with perjury.[2]

The jury in his first trial failed to reach a verdict. A retrial was pursued, however the jury again failed to reach a verdict. No further proceedings were taken.

He retired in 2016, citing ill-health as a result of the ‘strain’ of the proceedings.
