An new opinion poll has shown a drop in support for both Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael.

According to the survey, support for both parties has fallen by two points.

The Red C poll in today's Sunday Business Post shows that support Fianna Fáil is at 33%, while Fine Gael stands at 25%.

However, support for the Labour Party has risen by two points to 14%.

Sinn Féin lost two points and the Greens remain unchanged, but the Progressive Democrats have doubled their support from 2% to 4%.

The poll was conducted prior to the controversy which erupted on Thursday in relation to payments made to the Taoiseach during the 1990s.
