The news comes as a lucky family from Leinster have become Ireland’s newest Lotto millionaires after their life-changing win of €6,442,954.
The family scooped their prize in the draw on Wednesday, 10 April with a Quick Pick ticket purchased online.
This was the seventh online Lotto jackpot win since the National Lottery launched its online play in 2009 bringing the total online won on jackpots to over €33 million.
In the National Lottery Winners’ Room the lucky winner said: “Even after two weeks, we still can’t believe it. You always buy a ticket knowing that you’ve a chance of winning the jackpot but when it actually happens – it’s just unreal!
“I checked my phone after the draw and I clicked into the ticket and my jaw nearly hit the floor when I saw the €6.4 million prize. It took me nearly twenty minutes to finally open my mouth to tell my wife.”
He added that the family have been “very sensible so far” after winning the prize.
