A Norwegian author who sat in Tynwald last week, as part of his research for a book, says he was very impressed by what he saw.
Morten Soberg is writing about the world's parliaments and spent a week on the Isle of Man.
He says the debates he heard were of a high standard, and something else caught his eye in the chamber:
Onshore wind farm remains at pre-application stage
More public consultations to be held
Test of emergency systems at gas sphere to take place this afternoon
It will begin at 2pm and last for around 90 minutes
Tynwald report finds DoI staff lied
