The use of face coverings will become mandatory in shops in Scotland from 9 July as coronavirus restrictions are eased, Nicola Sturgeon has said.
Non-essential shops have re-opened in Scotland and bars and restaurants are due to open up again later this month.
The first minister said the 2m physical distancing rule would be eased for some premises when the country enters the next "phase" of its routemap on 9 July.
And she said face coverings would be mandatory in shops from that date.
Ms Sturgeon also announced that children under the age of 12 would no longer need to maintain physical distancing from other households.
