Nicola Sturgeon is set to announce whether further coronavirus restrictions will be imposed across Scotland in response to growing concerns surrounding the Omicron variant.
The First Minister is due to make a statement at Holyrood on Tuesday setting out any new measures as well as updating the Scottish Parliament on the booster vaccination programme.
After tightening rules around self isolation last week, the FM is expected to lay out some form of further restriction after Health Secretary Humza Yousaf warned they were "inevitable."

And speaking in advance of the statement, Ms Sturgeon cautioned that there may be "targeted and proportionate" measures introduced as a trade-off for allowing families to meet at Christmas.

With Omicron likely to become the dominant variant within days, Sturgeon will address MSPs on Tuesday afternoon in the Scottish Parliament.
What time is Nicola Sturgeon speaking today?
The First Minister will be speaking at Holyrood, with her statement expected at around 2.20pm.
However, this may be slightly delayed if any previous parliamentary business runs over earlier in the day.
After giving a statement lasting around 20 minutes, Sturgeon will then move onto questions from MSPs.
