The Enterprise Minister has labelled the abuse experienced by forecourt workers following fuel price hikes as "unacceptable".
Peter Burke made the comments after meeting with forecourt operators and home heating suppliers about dramatic rises in fuel costs since the US and Israel began bombing Iran.
The Government have confirmed that the CCPC is to investigate claims of price gouging over fuel.
Minister Burke, who's a Longford-Westmeath TD, has declared he has "had a constructive meeting today with representatives from the fuel industry."
He concludes by saying his department "continues to engage with the sector as matters evolve, including through the Government's Energy Security Group, which meets regularly."
