Nicola Sturgeon promises we'll know rules before relaxing lockdown

Scots will be issued with rules in advance of any easing of lockdown.

Nicola Sturgeon promised to publish clear guidance to the public and work with businesses to make it as easy as possible to understand the way forward.

Speaking at her daily briefing today, the First Minister said she is likely to confirm the start of the first phase of her road map out of lockdown on Thursday.

She expects that limited outdoor activities, including meeting up with another household while social distancing, will be permitted by the end of the week.

Ms Sturgeon also appealed to the country not to deviate from the plan.

While not directly referencing the Dominic Cummings scandal in Westminster, she said: "Many of you feel angry and frustrated, I understand that, but following the rules really matters."
