There have been two more coronavirus-related deaths in the Republic.
13 new cases of COVID-19 have also been confirmed this evening.
Today's numbers bring the total number of deaths to 1,714, and the confirmed cases to date to 25,368.
Chief Medical Officer Dr Tony Holohan said: “The importance of people exercising their own judgement and taking personal responsibility in protecting themselves and others cannot be overstated at this crucial point in the pandemic.
“Hand washing, physical distancing, cough/sneeze etiquette, face coverings and knowing the symptoms of COVID-19 - and what to immediately when experiencing symptoms - is how every individual can equip themselves to live safely as restrictions are eased.”
It comes as the Government is expected to announce plans to accelerate aspects of the reopening of the country.
They will issue guidance on summer weddings, which are set to be permitted with a cap on the number of guests.
The number of people that can attend indoor gatherings will be raised on June 29th and again in July - allowing funerals, weddings and some small concerts to happen with social distancing.
It's understood from July 20th as many as 500 people will be allowed to gather outdoors, opening the gate for spectator sport to start again.
New guidelines for gyms, theatres and cinemas are also expected today - with the latter possibly re-opening in August with social distancing.
Hairdressers and barbers are also expected to be allowed reopen on June 29th instead of the previously proposed July 20th.
