Takeaways could become dearer because of inflation, a Dáil committee has heard.
Officials from the Department of Finance officials told the Committee on Budgetary Oversight that price hikes in some basics food staples may occur later in the year.
Speaking at the Dáil Committee, Fianna Fáil TD John Lahart said: “I would be afraid, based on strong anecdotal evidence, that we have yet to see the real spike in prices on many food items, including takeaway meals.”
