The Council of Ministers will review the Isle of Man's position in relation to a resettlement scheme for Syrian refugees.
It follows a petition handed to the Chief Minister on Tuesday from local organisations who have asked him to consider helping people fleeing from conflict.
The One World Centre, Amnesty International IOM, Refugees welcome IOM and Manx Support Refugees offered up the document which contained more than 1,000 signatures.
They asked Howard Quayle to consider taking a 'fair share' of refugees - however he says it's not quite as simple as that:
Manxman's enormous shaft in good hands in Denmark
Tax return deadline looming - is yours done yet?
Landslip demolition work means Laxey road closure
Fancy doing a rubbish job for government?
Charity HQ vandalised for second time in two weeks
Murky conditions could bring flight delays today
Donations needed for Ukraine aid run
Commissioners won't chip in for department's for new car park
