Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has confirmed that the cost of living measures end after February because the government doesn’t have the funds to continue all of them.
Speaking about the introduction of the cost of living measures such as the three €200 energy credits last year to assist Irish households, Mr Varadkar said that the government will carry out a review to see which measures they can continue to support. He said: "We will work out which measure we can continue and which ones we can’t.”
However, the Taoiseach didn't clarify which measures would be scrapped after requests were made by the Opposition. He said n response: "Those are very legitimate and fair questions to ask, but I can’t answer them because the Government hasn’t met.”
