Fiji's new parliament is to hold its inaugural session today, its first meeting since the coup of 2006.
The 50 MPs are to be sworn in in the refurbished parliamentary chamber, part of the complex of government buildings in central Suva.
There will be heightened security in the area with Fiji Police putting in place measures to restrict movement in and around the complex.
The ceremony will be streamed live on two websites.
The Minister for Communications, Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum, says the internet relay will set new levels of transparency.
He says it will also keep MPs accountable, as standards of behaviour in the chamber are bound to be kept high if elected representatives know they are being watched.
