"Collectively, we need to be more demanding in how we expect our business leaders and those in the local and national public service to behave to urgently tackle Ireland's inflation head on - and also to help the many struggling with higher prices," Mr Walsh said.
"Many consumers would be bemused by the latest inflation figures, as price rises on many goods and services are dwarfing the rate of general inflation," said Paul Walsh.
Mr Walsh noted that at 10.9pc, motor insurance premiums have risen at 15 times the rate of inflation, showcasing the uneven impact of rising prices.
"Prices across the board in this country are among the highest in Europe," highlighting the severe financial strain faced by consumers, especially post-Covid.
