The Government will bring forward a counter-motion today to a Sinn Féin proposal for an emergency budget.
The Dáil will debate whether there should be an immediate intervention on the cost of living, before the summer recess.
The government will insist on waiting until October's budget for further measures.
Junior Business Minister, Robert Troy, says Sinn Féin's motion won't be supported by his colleagues.
"Government will bring forward a counter motion that will be published later today after the cabinet meeting.
"Government will note that we within the coming weeks we will publish the summer economic statement, and that will set out the framework in terms of the parameters and the funding that will be available to introduce a comprehensive cost of living budget later this year."
