Paramedics and ambulance workers have voted overwhelmingly for strike action as part of a dispute over the implementation of reforms and modernisation of the service.
A ballot by Siptu members of the National Ambulance Service (NAS), counted last Friday, has returned a result of over 95% in favour of strike action, the union announced.
