Sinn Féin wants the Government to hold off on a tax cut and spend some of the money saved on social supports.
The party has said the tax cut proposed by Leo Varadkar at the Fine Gael party conference yesterday will cost €2.27 billion.
The Taoiseach unveiled plans to raise the entry point for the top rate of tax to €50,000, which could be worth €60 euro a week to a single person.
According to the Taoiseach, the proposed changes would be phased in over five years.

Crumlin Children's Hospital in Dublin is to conduct a review into how a woman was incorrectly told she didn't have a cancer gene, according to reports this morning.
The Sunday Times reports that the woman, who does not want to be identified, was told in 2009 that she tested negative for the BRCA1 gene.
However, it's emerged her test result was incorrect and her doctors were told last month that she actually tested positive.
The woman is now being treated for an aggressive form of ovarian cancer.
