Some 12,497 were offered hybrid - a combination of treatments or others. That totals to the figure to which I referred earlier, which was 79,405. It is important to put this in context because these are solutions on offer to real people. They are not just numbers, they do represent families. As much as I am willing to acknowledge that there are still families with genuine difficulties, so we all need to put our heads together, work harder, better and accept that the job is not yet done, one must also acknowledge that the 79,405 mortgage accounts represent progress.

It is progress for 79,405 people.
