Wales could reopen indoor hospitality and all holiday accommodation by the end of May if Labour retain control of the Welsh Government, First Minister Mark Drakeford has said.
Mr Drakeford said the “ambition” was dependent on Wales’ public health situation at the time and whether he was still leading the country following May’s Senedd elections.
On Thursday he set out further dates for his road map out of lockdown, which included lifting travel rules and reopening all close contact services and shops on April 12 and reopening outdoor hospitality from April 26.

Speaking at Thursday’s Welsh Government press conference, Mr Drakeford said he would continue a “careful, step-by-step approach” to lifting the restrictions, but wanted to allow people to “plan even further ahead” by outlining potential easing of measures after the May 6 election.
