AFAIK it's impossible unless it goes through as part of the budget.
You can't just raise rates willy-nilly otherwise how can businesses plan?

Typical of recent baseless rumours.

Of course, all they would need is a Dail motion and for it to be included in the Finance Act - which is typically passed weeks, if not months after the budget announcements.
