Scotsman.com: Cash-in-transit company Brinks Allied rejected an invitation to attend Ireland's Labour Court to end a dispute with its workers that could see hundreds of ATMs run out of money. Workers object to new security vans and procedures introduced by Brinks Allied following a spate of attempted robberies. The workers voted against proposals to resolve the row, which has left some 160 non-branch ATMs empty since the weekend. Another 80 ATMs are expected to run out of cash in the next 24 hours unless the issue is resolved.
