The BBC is reporting this afternoon ...
First Minister Mark Drakeford has outlined the latest picture on coronavirus in Wales, during the latest daily update from the Welsh Government.
He told the briefing:
- Restrictions are beginning to affect the rates of infections - but "things will get worse before they get better"
- He has called for all four parts of the UK to come together to review rules on tackling the virus in the coming weeks
- The first minister said he believed the lockdown will need to continue after Easter: "A further period of restraint will be necessary"
- A new law on social distancing is expected to be introduced on Tuesday - but it will not be an "absolute ban" on workers being within two metres of each other
- Some issues still remained with people visiting second or holiday homes in north and west Wales over the weekend
- Chief constables have told the Welsh Government they have sufficient powers at the moment to enforce restrictions
- The First Minister sent his best wishes to Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who is currently being treated in hospital for coronavirus, wishing him a "a speedy recovery"
