The explanatory memorandum accompanying the proposal states that "On July 29, the Knesset approved the Economic Assistance Plan Law.

In 2020.

"



In order to finance the grants, NIS 120 million from the Ministry of Finance and NIS 12 million from the Ministry of Defense will be transferred to the Veterans Absorption Fund in the Ministry of Defense, which will send the grants directly to the bank accounts of eligible veterans.
