308 Mr. Flood asked the Minister for Education and Science if he has received a bone fide tender for the construction of Coláiste De-hÍde in Tallaght, Dublin 24; if his attention has been drawn the very urgent necessity to provide a purpose built school building; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4985/00]

I can confirm to the Deputy that the design team responsible for the architectural planning of Coláiste De h-Íde has submitted a tender report to the building unit of my Department. The report is currently being assessed and it is anticipated that a decision regarding this report will be made within the next few days.
