The Knesset's Constitution Committee today (Tuesday) discussed the bill for the prevention of economic violence in the family in preparation for the second and third readings.

The government bill provoked much criticism from Knesset members in the debate, who argued that it was a matter of introducing "legalization" into the family cells and that this would lead to false claims.

Although this is a government bill, MK Shlomo Qarai said all Likud members in the Constitution Committee oppose it.

"If, for example, the husband comes and tells the wife to put your salary here, and this is the situation between them, is this the situation that belongs to the definition of violence?

"Not sure," said MK Amit Halevi (Likud).

"I know a lot of these and other types of relationships, and the question is when are we as legislators, as a state, when we are not talking about physical violence, when is it right for us to get into family life, these relationships and impose sanctions."

MK Ariel Kellner from his party also joined in, claiming that the proposal makes the state the "director of the family cell." He said, "Horror is a subjective concept and it is difficult to know from the outside, , You will prove.

Family value is a fundamental value.

There are extreme cases, they are not the norm. "

According to the bill in question, an amendment will be made to the Law for the Prevention of Domestic Violence, so that an answer will also be given in the case of economic violence, in a way that will allow the court to issue a protection order.

The proposal further states that economic violence will make it possible to sue for damages.

Under the proposal, economic violence is an ongoing behavior that intimidates or exercises control or coercion that can manifest itself in several ways: preventing independent economic conduct, preventing or addressing difficulties in accessing assets such as a credit card, and economic conduct that prevents reasonable management of a family member.

MK Bezalel Smutrich (right) claimed that "the great advantage of the progressive left, even crazy I would say, is that it knows how to put in its absurd trolls and advance the agendas in a very sophisticated way, in legal and legal scholarly terms." It is doubtful that there are relationships that are unhealthy and not built properly between spouses.

It could be a man who financially controls the family cell, and it could be a woman who never stops blackmailing her husband and putting him in debt and alas if he dares to tell her no.

Then there will be complaints and maybe you will also complain. "

He added that the law would become "another tool for the war between the sexes in delusional, absurd conflicts that drive the family and the relationship, and the healthy, normal cells of families in the State of Israel. When the courts are put into these systems. Who supports the bill? All organizations have a strategy for conflict "Between the sexes in the State of Israel. And all the discourse here is gender discourse. It is clear that after the dissolution of the family unit, claims will suddenly arise and you will prove that you do not have a sister."

"This is a government law that was passed unanimously in the Ministerial Committee and unanimously in the Knesset," stressed MK Keren Barak (Likud) who promoted the law.

"Anyone who has experienced this terror and finally managed to get out of this place and rehabilitate herself will be able to claim compensation for this period. Because once there are such claims and they understand that the price of this terror, I think it will go down. We are looking for deterrence. I have been exposed to women. "Everyday, it crosses sectors and strata of the population, it means that the woman is controlled, it is almost always accompanied by stock and physical violence. And if the definitions need to be precise, we will fine-tune them."

"Organizations whose strategy is to conflict between the sexes."

Minister for Social Equality Meirav Cohen explained that the law does not only concern relationships between spouses.

"We receive a lot of inquiries about children who exploit their older parents financially and even in this we are helpless today and do not know how to help them. Therefore this important legislation comes to help exploitation within the family. This is an innovative law in a global view and therefore offer a proportionate proposal. "In the years to come, we will study the products and see what can be improved and what lessons need to be learned. This is a proposal with a very important message that must come out of here today, certainly in light of the murders that took place yesterday."
