There are no provisional dates for the relaxation of this in the current timetable (
https://www.gov.scot/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-timetable-for-easing-restrictions/pages/travel/). It just says:
"Currently non-essential travel between Scotland and the rest of the UK and the wider
Common Travel Area (CTA) (i.e. the Republic of Ireland, the Channel Islands and the Isle of
Man) is prohibited as a measure to reduce the risk of importation of the virus. Travel within
the UK and the wider CTA is important to many families and to the tourism sector. We will
keep that ban under review, taking account of trends in prevalence and the restrictions in
place in the other CTA countries and the confidence we can take from that about the risks of
travel resulting in importation of the virus, with a review to relaxing the ban – or targeting it
only on travel to and from particular areas in the rest of the CTA – when it becomes safe to do
so."
