Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour)

I wish to raise three matters. The first is an issue that I raised yesterday during Leaders Questions, which relates to prices and the extent to which consumers are being ripped off. I understand that following my raising the matter with the Taoiseach yesterday he asked the Tánaiste to get a handle on the problem. I was a little surprised that after 11 years in Government neither the Tánaiste nor the Taoiseach appears to have a handle on the prices problem.
