Question:

334 Mr. Aylward asked the Minister for Education and Science the progress on an application for transfer by the National College of Ireland to a site allocated to the college by the Dublin Docklands Authority in view of the inadequate facilities available at its present location. [19544/99]

Minister for Education and Science (Mr. Martin)

A revised proposal has recently been submitted to my Department by the National College of Ireland in relation to its proposed new campus in the Dublin docklands. This proposal is currently under active consideration. This process must be completed before a decision regarding the college's application can be made.
