Stormont ministers have agreed a series of lockdown relaxations including a timetable for returning all schoolchildren to classes in Northern Ireland.
Modest and small steps focus on outdoor gatherings and sporting activities as well as click and collect services for non-essential retail outlets.
The “stay at home” rule is also set to lift next month, replaced with a “stay local” message.
First Minister Arlene Foster said: “Our responsibility to you is to look carefully at how we can improve the situation for you in a careful and sustainable way.
“We want to give you hope and we have discussed today a number of small steps which we hope will be welcome.”
