The Isle of Man will raise its profile among parliamentarians from around the British Isles this week, when it hosts a meeting of the British-Irish Parliamentary Assembly.
The Assembly's plenary is sitting at the Villa Marina on Monday and Tuesday, the first time it's been held in the Island.
Top of the agenda is the Saville Report on Bloody Sunday, published earlier this year.
Later, delegates will debate the role tourism can play in boosting economic recovery.
The Assembly was established in 1990 to act as a link between the UK and Irish parliaments.
It now includes representatives of the Scottish parliament, the Northern Ireland and Welsh Assemblies, the States of Jersey and Guernsey and the Court of Tynwald.
The meeting usually alternates between the Irish Republic and the UK.
Speaker of the Keys Steve Rodan says the Manx venue reflects the Assembly's increasing concern with issues across the British Isles, such as the reciprocal health agreement.
Chief Minister Tony Brown will deliver a formal address to delegates on Monday morning.
A debate on the Saville Inquiry into Bloody Sunday will be led by the new UK Secretary of State for Northern Ireland Owen Paterson.
Members of the public are welcome to attend and listen to proceedings.
