THE First Minister is expected to announce a three-week package of measures to further ease coronavirus restrictions in Wales tomorrow (Friday, July 10).
Mark Drakeford will confirm that from Monday (July 13) restaurants and pubs with outdoor areas will be able to reopen with strict social distancing measures in place, as has been previously announced.
Hairdressing salons will also be able to open by appointment only.
A Welsh Government spokesman said: “Tomorrow, the First Minister is expected to announce a three-week package of measures to further lift Wales’ coronavirus restrictions.
"The measures will be phased in every Monday over the next three weeks and will see large parts of Wales’ visitor, hospitality, leisure and tourism industries start to re-open."
The County Times understands that Mr Drakeford could tell other areas in the beauty industry, such as nail salons and tattooists, to begin preparations to open before the end of July.
