Later this afternoon, Prime Minister Boris Johnson will announce whether rules around masks and social distancing will be dropped in England.
If he does announce relaxations to the rules limits on hospitality and guidance on working from home will also be axed.
This is expected to accelerate the rapid spread of Delta, which is already causing a noticeable rise in infections.
On 1 July, case rates in the North East England were almost three times higher than they were on the original date for lifting restrictions at the end of June.
Health Secretary Sajid Javid will make a statement to the House of Commons this afternoon, and Boris Johnson will hold a Downing Street press conference at 5pm.
