It comes as new data from the Central Statistics Office (CSO) shows that inflation now sits at 6.7%, the largest annual spike since November 2000.
Leaders’ questions in the Dail focused once again on the pressure faced by families, with Sinn Fein finance spokesperson Pearse Doherty urging action from Tanaiste Mr Varadkar.
