The table is the guidelines that ORs (Official Receivers) are expected to follow. Some ORs are more lenient that others especially if you are paying an IPA (Income Payment Agreement).

Once you are declared BR an OR will be assigned your case and it is their job to act on behalf of your creditors and obtain any money (via assets or an IPA) to pay to creditors.

Hi, is that table an official bankruptcy guide that the court will use to decide how much is repaid? What's an OR?

The guidelines are in the following Excel spreadsheet - www.insolvency.gov.uk/DocumentLibrary/Policy/Excel/Household%20Expenditur.xls

The clothes guidelines for 2 adults/no children is £117 and for 2 adults/2 children is £156.

For 2 adults/1 child you should put somewhere in between so around £135 or so.
