Premier Peter Malinauskas said "at this stage" there was "no need" to change current restrictions.
"(We have) no plans to bring back restrictions but actively monitoring the situation on hospitals," he said.
"In terms of COVID-19, yes case numbers continue to go up, what we watch closely of course is the impact that has on the health system.
"In terms of events and restrictions, there is no information we have at hand to suggest that anything will change any time soon."
