Gardaí have confirmed that a number of names were taken at a protest by former Debenham workers in Cork today. In a statement issued this afternoon, gardaí said that a number of people were told they were "in potential breach of regulations designed to protect themselves and others in the community" and asked to disperse, which they did.

A garda investigation is said to be continuing and a file may be prepared for the Director of Public Prosecutions. Workers protesting outside the Patrick Street store in Cork had earlier said their names were taken by gardaí for breaching the Covid-19 2km rule.

Protests are taking place at ten of the company's stores across the country over the decision to close and the lack of a company redundancy package.
