Measures include extended excise cuts, a further 10 cent per litre reduction on petrol and diesel, and supports for transport and agriculture.

The carbon tax increase on certain fuels has also been delayed, with additional subsidies planned for farming and fisheries.

Speaking to Ocean fm news Minster Marian Harkin says frustration is understandable, but supply chains must remain open.
