Stormont ministers will meet later to consider further Covid-19 relaxations for Northern Ireland.
The virtual executive meeting will re-examine a number of decisions that were postponed last week amid concerns about rising infection numbers.
These “moderate” risk moves include allowing theatres and concert halls to welcome back audiences and increasing the limit on gatherings in indoor domestic settings from six to 10, from no more than three households.

While the moderate steps will be considered during Monday afternoon’s meeting, ministers will convene again on Thursday to consider the higher risk relaxations.
These include lifting restrictions on indoor live music, including a proposal to end a requirement for the sound to be kept to an ambient level.
The reopening of conferences and exhibitions will also be considered on Thursday, as will a proposal to end social distancing requirements for outdoor activities and reduce the distance to one metre for indoor settings.
