Patrick André Leclercq (born 2 August 1938) was the Minister of State of Monaco. He was chosen by Rainier III, Prince of Monaco in December 1999, to replace Michel Lévêque, who retired a few days later. He had previously served as France's consul / ambassador to Spain, Egypt (Jordan), Montreal (Canada), as well as in the Foreign Ministry.

Patrick André Leclercq was born in Lille, attended the prestigious Lycée Janson-de-Sailly in Paris earning his Baccalauréat, graduated from Sciences Po and the École nationale d'administration (ENA).

He was due to formally step down on 1 May 2005 and to be replaced by Jean-Paul Proust, but Proust's inauguration was deferred for a few weeks owing to the death of ruling Prince Rainier.

He was subsequently appointed to the board of the Monegasque company Société des Bains de Mer, and he holds the Order of Saint-Charles.
