## Car sales push Irish retail sales sharply higher again   DUBLIN (Reuters) – Annual Irish retail sales volumes rose sharply again last month due to another surge in car sales, jumping 7.5% year-on-year, Central Statistics Office data showed on Monday.    When a 23.5% year-on-year increase in motor trades was excluded, retail sales rose by 0.5% month-on-month compared with a headline monthly increase of 2.8% and were 0.4% lower than April 2022.
