On June 15, pubs can open for seated service.
According to Chief Minister, Howard Quayle MHK, pubs will be able to offer a 'proper seated meal' as an 'interim step' to allow these businesses to begin a return.
However, Mr Quayle adds having crowded bars is still not allowed at this time - nightclubs will remain closed.
The Chief Minister says the service the pubs can offer from that date must be 'food driven'.
