The £17.9m figure for 2020 is a forecast taken from the six monthly update report of the Government Plan – Covid response, pages 145 and 146 of the document below:
Government Plan 2020-23
It is made up of three items with the actual spend to end July shown alongside. As the Nightingale wing has not been operational to date, costs will be substantially below the budgeted figure of £17.9m for 2020.
| | Department | Description Forecast for 2020 | Actual spend to end July |
| IHE | Construction and fit-out costs of the Nightingale Wing | £9,894,800 | £7,892,984 |
| HCS | Nightingale Wing operational costs (subject to required use) | £7,386,645 | £321,645 |
| HCS | Nightingale wing beds - provision and set up of 180 beds for the field hospital | £640,000 | £640,000 |

The figures above assume occupation of the facility to the end of March 2021 and include staffing and operational costs for HCS and the following for IHE:
building strip-out in April / May 2020
storage of reusable items
dismantling of the building and associated plant and machinery buildings

Minor water ingress problems with the main building have been undertaken by Neptunus at their own cost. We are not aware of any damage to the marquees on site providing additional cover to outside areas and facilities.
