The Welsh Government has explained why it is not giving a time frame for coming out of lockdown.
First Minister Mark Drakeford unveiled the Welsh Government's new traffic light system for exiting lockdown on Friday.
The plan is to move from lockdown to red, to amber and to green slowly - and to monitor hospital admissions and infections data throughout. If hospital admissions increase, then any changes could be reversed. You can read more on the plans here.
Despite the announcement, many people were disappointed the plans did not have any concrete dates for when lockdown would start to be lifted.
One of those is CBI Wales director Ian Price, who said "indicative timelines outlining when sectors and workplaces can come back online" were needed "so businesses of all shapes and sizes can quickly ramp-up essential restart planning and decision-making".
But Mr Drakeford explained the reasoning at today's Welsh Government press conference, saying announcing dates would be a distraction.
He said: "We have avoided dates ... because we thought the danger was that if you provide dates, people focus exclusively on the date.
"They don't focus on what we have set out in the document which is the process we need to go through in order to know whether we have reached the right moment to make further changes. That is much more important that an arbitrary date."
Mr Drakeford, who also criticised the UK Government for a lack of communication over lockdown, added it was more important to focus on the R rate (the the average number a sick person could pass the virus on to).
"It is being sure that we can say that the circulation of the virus is still below that R figure, that we still have capacity our health service to deal with coronavirus if it were to start to circulate again," he said.
"Those tests are what we need to be focusing on rather than a date that you can take out of the air, put on a piece of paper and which is inevitably I think at this point arbirarty."
He added it leads to people focusing on "the wrong thing rather than the important thing".
The First Minister pointed out although many countries have given specific time scales of easing lockdown, many others had not.
He said: "Across the world there are some countries that have chosen to set out a date driven road map to [tackle] coronavirus and there are others; New Zealand, Australia and the Northern Ireland executive earlier this week and now Wales that prefers to set out a sequence, a pathway that people can follow and I have done it for the reasons we said."
