I would probably use a No. 12 self-tapping screw or 1/4" one, the 12 should be sufficient though. About 1" or 1 1/4" in length. I would probably use the 1" one and see how it goes.
In my Dutch star the roof membrane is no more that 1/16" thick if that. The plywood is probably 1/4" but could be 3/8" - I doubt that though. The space to the ceiling is at least 4" and maybe as much as 6" as there is a lot of room and thick insulation there. I have no idea what yours is.
