Former employees of the Paris Bakery on Moore St have taken their protest to the owner's home in County Wicklow. 

They've been staging a sit-in at the premises since Friday.

It's reported that forty workers are owed up to €100,000 in unpaid wages. 

A group of protesters left Dublin this morning. They're planning to sit outside what's been described as "a mansion" - in a protest they say will be "peaceful".

Meanwhile, a number have stayed behind at the bakery on Moore St to continue their sit-in.

Edel McGinley of Migrant Rights Ireland is a spokeswoman for the staff. She says bosses have failed to meet with staff - and they have no choice but to go to the owner's home:

Workers were locked out when they showed up for work last Tuesday and have been protesting since. 

She's joined the protesters in Wicklow and believes the money is there - although one of the bosses has told Migrant Rights Ireland he doesn't have the cash to pay up.
