King Charles is not planning to visit areas that have been severely impacted by riots as the monarch follows the late Queen's lead in his response.
It comes following the Southport stabbings where Charles, at his request, has been briefed on a daily basis about the evolving national situation.
Following the stabbing attack the King and Queen led tributes to the victims, saying: "We send our most heartfelt condolences, prayers and deepest sympathies to the families and loved ones of those who have so tragically lost their lives, and to all those affected by this truly appalling attack."
Leader of the anti-monarchy group Republic, Graham Smith, has criticised the lack of response since from the King, claiming that when the nation is in crisis, the monarch is "nowhere to be seen".

Queen Elizabeth II didn't send any messages when rioting erupted in north London in summer 2011 but had been receiving updates about developments at that time according to The Daily Mail's former royal correspondent, Richard Kay.
Historian and author, Sir Anthony Seldon, defended King Charles telling the BBC: "The time for the King to speak, if at all, is when everything has calmed down again.
"The issues that have led to the riots are not going to go away quickly. We need to hear his considered thoughts then about societal harmony."
However, historian Kate Williams told Times Radio this is the moment for Charles to talk about community cohesion, saying: "I think that if I were advising him I would suggest making that statement sooner rather than later."
GB News has approached Buckingham Palace for a comment.

Sir Keir Starmer has said swift justice, including sentencing, has been a deterrent to more violent disorder.
At least a dozen people were jailed on Thursday for their part in the riots of the past 10 days, with more expected to be sent to prison on Friday, including some on live television.
The Prime Minister addressed his third emergency Cobra meeting since the first riot in Southport on July 30 and after many planned protests failed to materialise on Wednesday night. Sir Keir told the meeting that police need to remain on "high alert."
He is understood to have said there was no doubt that levels of policing in the right places and swift justice over the past week, including sentencing, have acted as a deterrent to disorder.
Riots broke out in the UK Getty Meanwhile, Hartlepool resident who set up an online fundraiser for a local mosque following disorder in the town said it had raised more than £12,000. Andrew Cooper said it was "heartbreaking" to hear protesters were heading towards the Nasir Mosque on July 31, adding it was “lucky” police proactively blocked off roads surrounding it.
Tahir Selby, imam at the Nasir Mosque, said it was “great” the police prevented any trouble for them.
Discussing the fundraiser, Selby told the programme: "It’s been tremendous to see the love and support of the people.
"It’s something which we have been trying to do over the years – to try to help the community and remove these misunderstandings that anyone may have."
