The National Public Health Emergency Team is meeting today.
The Taoiseach's being urged to allow people to leave their counties when the Level 5 coronavirus restrictions end next month.
As the Covid 19 figures continue to improve, attention has turned to what'll happen at the end of the current lockdown.
The Taoiseach has said he wants the country to move to level three restrictions from December 1st. However, if Ireland stayed in level 3 for Christmas, it would mean you couldn't have visitors to your home.
Some within Michael Martin's party, like senator Malcolm Byrne, want him to go further so people can leave their counties:
However, relaxing measures in some parts of the country might not be so straightforward. Donegal is now the only county with a 14 day incidence rate of more than 300 per 100 thousand. That's over twice the national average.
The National Public Health Emergency Team is meeting at the moment to discuss the latest progress with level 5.
Restrictions in the North, meanwhile, are due to expire tonight but politicians there still can't agree on the way forward.
The DUP has vetoed a proposal to extend the lockdown measures by a week. The Stormont Executive is meeting again today to try and find a solution.
