Ramaphosa is due to address the nation at 8pm. 

The country is currently on adjusted level 3, but the Covid-19 infection rate has been on a consistent downward trajectory over the past few weeks. 

Level 2 restrictions could see a relaxation of the restrictions around the sale of alcohol and an easing of the curfew.  

This would provide some respite to the hard-hit restaurant and hospitality industry.

Government could also allow larger number of people to gather - a potentially significant decision in the run-up to the local elections on 1 November.
