Covid restrictions in Wales are unlikely to be significantly reduced until July because of concern about the Delta variant, UNN has learned.
Welsh government sources are downplaying expectations ahead of a scheduled announcement by First Minister Mark Drakeford on Friday.
Ministers have been looking at permitting more people to meet indoors, however as cases apparently rise, sources say there will not be big changes in the rules for the next four weeks.
Ministers have been reviewing the situation before deciding whether other restrictions could be relaxed on 21 June.
Boris Johnson has confirmed the final stage of lockdown easing in England will be delayed until at least19 July.
Welsh Conservative Senedd leader Andrew RT Davies said: “This does not come as a surprise, particularly in light of the concerns over the Delta variant.”
