Nicola Sturgeon is set to announce the latest update on Scotland's five-tier coronavirus lockdown system today.
The First Minister will make a speech to parliament on Tuesday afternoon - with millions likely to be placed under the toughest restrictions.
She yesterday warned that areas of the western central belt could be moved to level 4 after cases have remained at a "stubbornly high level".
In leaked documents, up to twelve local authority areas could be plunged under stricter lockdown measures this week.
If confirmed as expected, the level 4 decision will lead to further restrictions on travel, closure of non essential shops, hairdressers, pubs and gyms from Friday.
So, what time is Nicola Sturgeon's speech today and how can you watch it?
