The Mayor of Paris will be making his first ever visit to a part of his city in Guernsey today.

Bertrand Delanoë will be given a tour of Hauteville House, once the home of author Victor Hugo, and we'll be following his visit with a reporter and a photographer.

The reaction to the financial problems of Les Beaucamps High School sub-contractor Lauren Lloyd continues, and today we're going to be contacting the Commerce and Employment Department to talk about States contracts and the tendering process.

We're also talking to UK MP Alun Cairns, chairman of the all-party parliamentary group investigating the Arch Cru affair and among other things we'll be asking what impact this investigation could have on the CI Stock Exchange.

Following the UK Prime Minister's cabinet reshuffle yesterday we expect to hear from the Guernsey Policy Council today with more information about what it might mean for the island.

Closer to home we're talking to residents about plans for a new car park near the Town Arsenal, meeting a man who's planning to swim the Channel and getting more reaction from the Environment Department to the criticism of bus company CT Plus.

Tomorrow's sports pages feature a report and pictures from last weekend's Guernsey Rowing Club's 'RAFA' race as well as coverage of tonight's Priaulx League match between Vale Rec and Sylvans, which kicks of at the Corbet Field at 7.30.
