Lockdown restrictions will be changing for residents from Monday.
Lockdown restrictions will be changing for residents from Monday.

More coronavirus restrictions will be eased on Monday (April 12th) as part of the Government's roadmap out of lockdown.

The biggest changes are non-essential shops, hairdressers, gyms and swimming pools are allowed to open and pubs, cafés and restaurants can serve customers seated outside.

Here's what's changing:

  • Indoor leisure, including gyms, can open for use individually or within household groups.
  • The rule of six or two households meeting outside still applies - there should be no mixing of households indoors.
  • Outdoor attractions, such as zoos, theme parks and drive-in cinemas can reopen.
  • Libraries and community centres can reopen.
  • Personal care premises can reopen.
  • All retail can open.
  • Hospitality can open outdoors.
  • All children's activities, indoor parent and child groups of up to 15 parents, can resume.
  • Domestic overnight stays and self-contained accommodation is open for separate households only - no mixing of households.
  • Up to 30 people can attend funerals and up to 15 can attend wakes, weddings and receptions.
  • No international holidays are allowed.

This is stage two in the Government's four-part plan, with stage three - when most outdoor restrictions will be lifted and pubs, restaurants, cinemas, theatres, sports stadiums and other venues can reopen indoors - beginning no earlier than May 17th.
