Rank and File Gardai have voted to engage in a five day work-to-rule from the 10th to the 14th of November.

The action coincides with an EU Presidency meeting of leaders from the bloc in Dublin.

Concerns were raised yesterday about the "strong possibility" of an attack during EU meetings next month, when work-to-rule action is now set to take place.

Gardaí had voted overwhelmingly for industrial action last week, following a survey filled out by members.

A statement from the GRA, says Gardaí stationed in Dublin will only report for duty at their home station, before being transferred to their point of duty.

While Gardaí within 100 kms of their point of duty will report to their home station, before being transferred to work.

The statements adds Gardaí, must not use their private cars to get to or from work.
