(1)Where a debtor—
(a)is unable to pay forthwith the amount of a judgment obtained against him; and
(b)alleges that his whole indebtedness amounts to a sum not exceeding the county court limit, inclusive of the debt for which the judgment was obtained;
[F1the county court] may make an order providing for the adminstration of his estate.
(2)In this Part of this Act—
“administration order” means an order under this section; and
F2...
(3)Before an administration order is made, the [F3county court] shall, in accordance with [F4rules of court], send to every person whose name the debtor has notified to the [F3county court] as being a creditor of his, a notice that that person’s name has been so notified.
(4)So long as an administration order is in force, a creditor whose name is included in the schedule to the order shall not, without the leave of the [F3county court] , be entitled to present, or join in, a bankruptcy petition against the debtor unless—
(a)his name was so notified; and
(b)the debt by virtue of which he presents, or joins in, the petition, exceeds [F5£1500]; and
(c)the notice given under subsection (3) was received by the creditor within 28 days immediately preceding the day on which the petition is presented.
(5)An administration order shall not be invalid by reason only that the total amount of the debts is found at any time to exceed the county court limit, but in that case the court may, if it thinks fit, set aside the order.
(6)An administration order may provide for the payment of the debts of the debtor by instalments or otherwise, and either in full or to such extent as appears practicable to the court under the circumstances of the case, and subject to any conditions as to his future earnings or income which the court may think just.
(7)The Secretary of State may by regulations increase or reduce the sum for the time being specified in subsection (4)(b); but no such increase in the sum so specified shall affect any case in which the bankruptcy petition was presented before the coming into force of the increase.
(8)The power to make regulations under subsection (7) shall be exercisable by statutory instrument; and no such regulations shall be made unless a draft of them has been approved by resolution of each House of Parliament.
