Sinn Féin has refused to rule in or out the possibility of doing a deal with Fianna Fáil following the General Election.
It says it will not commit to one major party in advance of the ballot.
Speaking at the launch of Sinn Féin's priorities, its leader in the Dáil Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin said his party will see who's offering the best deal.
"If the circumstances are right, if we have the numbers, if the configuration opens up the opportunity, if whatever other party or parties are interested in being involved with Sinn Féin, that their specific programme - what they're prepared to do - meets our requirements and our demands, it will be Sinn Féin who will make that decision and Sinn Féin alone."
