The Taoiseach has been accused of turning renters into "sacrificial lambs" under the Government's new rent rules.
The Government announced sweeping changes to the rent system on Tuesday that will cap rent increases at the rate of inflation. However, in times of high inflation, hikes for most tenancies will be limited to a maximum of 2%.
