The Knesset's Economic Committee held a follow-up meeting today (Sunday) regarding the handling of small businesses of male and female reserve servants. Ido Tobiana, a reservist who owns a business, said that three months have passed since he submitted an application and he has not received a shekel.
Lt. Col. Ziv Barak said that the aid does not compensate him for excess expenses such as overtime and bonuses that he pays to employees in order to preserve the business. "This story needs to end with a victory not in battle, but with the trust of the reservists in us," said former chief reserve officer Hosea Friedman.
