The construction cost for the new healthcare centre at HMP Wandsworth was projected to be £9.8m plus VAT in April 2020. The final outturn cost is £10.4m plus VAT. The 6% increase in outturn costs was a result of inflation and some risk items materialising during delivery, though these were within the 10% risk contingency allowed for in the original business case.
