Retailers such as Tesco, Aldi and Lidl have agreed to reduce prices in stores following a meeting in the Dail earlier this week. Supermarkets have been accused of ramping up prices in recent times despite the ongoing cost of living crisis.
Chairperson of the Consumer Association of Ireland Michael Kilcoyne hit out at the six week timeframe allocated for price reductions to certain retailers. He accused supermarkets of taking advantage of struggling consumers as living costs soar.
