Meanwhile, both parties have managed to bridge a pretty significant lead against Taoiseach Micheál Martin's party, Fianna Fáil.
Fianna Fail remains lagging behind at 20% - its average poll rating over the last six successive surveys undertaken by the publication.
Meanwhile, Leo Varadkar's party, Fine Gael, is up a point to 25 per cent. Sinn Féin also saw a four-point drop to 30%.
The polling window for the opinion poll overlapped with the final week of the Dublin Bay South by-election which took place last week and saw Labour's Ivana Bacik win the seat. Last month, The Sunday Times Behaviour and Attitudes Poll reported that Sinn Féin had taken a significant 10 point lead over Fine Gael, also eclipsing Fianna Fáil by 14 points. The party, led by Mary Lou McDonald was up by four points to 34%, meanwhile, Tánaiste Leo Varadkar's party has dropped four points to 24% and Fianna Fáil is down two points to 20%. The Green Party was also down one point to 4% and independent candidates went up a point to 9%.
