This bullying has nothing to do with governance

The incoming "governance" campaign of the Minister of Internal Security, Amir Ohana, who tried to make a political profit on the backs and health of the imprisoned population, came to an end this week.

In the Bezeq procedure, thousands of prisoners were vaccinated within three days, and in fact every prisoner who wanted to did so received the desired vaccine.



Less than two weeks ago, Minister Ohana was shocked in posts and interviews by the idea that murderers such as Eli Fimstein, Roni Ron or Abdullah Barghouti would be vaccinated before IPS staff, teachers and kindergarten teachers, public transport drivers and their victims' families. By the end of the week all the inmates, and more on the order of the Minister.

IPS staff after vaccination, but probably before most public transport drivers and the families of the victims. Exactly for such cases Ehud Barak nature immortal phrase - leaf on the tree like Tarzan, stepped down as Popeye.



Although seemingly saga has ended, you should still dwell on conduct When a person is sent to prison, his sentence is embodied in the actual imprisonment. A minister cannot decide that he is denied medical treatment or any other right, just as he cannot suddenly decide that every prisoner will be whipped every morning.



Attorney General and his Deputy, Amit Merri , As well as the Deputy Director General of the Ministry of Health, Prof. Itamar Grotto, tried to explain this to Ohana.

He, for his part, invited them to run in the Knesset elections, and until they were elected, he did not see fit to consider their position.

He and zero more.



But beyond the beep about the prisoners' lives and health, and beyond the beep about the law and the ombudsman, it is worth noting Ohana's beep about the Ministry of Health. The Ministry of Health's priority committee set the inmates and prisoners at the same priority level. On December 31, they were raised to the highest level, along with medical staff and nursing home residents.

The committee's considerations were purely professional, and included "health and epidemiological precedence, safety, simplicity, flexible breadth and flow of the vaccine to ensure the safety, efficacy and efficacy of the vaccines."

Health Minister Yuli Edelstein relied on the committee's professional decision, and his position as submitted to the High Court is that the committee is "the only body that determines the immunization procedures." But Ohana decided to tweet about it.



It is clearly a dangerous conduct. Of prisoners and wardens simply because that is how he decided, what will prevent the Minister of Transportation from deciding that train drivers precede bus drivers? Or the Minister of Agriculture deciding that farmers are a top priority? And if the Minister is allowed to prioritize as he pleases, maybe the Jerusalem Minister The public chose him, didn't they?

The Priority Committee of the Ministry of Health has set the prisoners and wardens at the same level of priority.

So why did Ohana actually decide that his "governance" outweighs that of his party colleague, Health Minister Edelstein?

The reason is that Ohana holds the keys to the prisons through the IPS and completely controls what happens in them. He sits on the counter, if you will, and chooses to bully him. Not that Edelstein, who recently violated a High Court ruling, has anything to complain about bullying.

But this time it was a direct risk to the lives of the prisoners.



Unlike the general public, which can, for example, try to exploit excess vaccines at the end of the day, the IPS has complete control over the prisoners. Instead of realizing that this increases its responsibility for their safety and health, Ohana used this control to endanger them. It's a shame the road there looked the way it did.

The two data that should light a red light

On Tuesday, the annual report of the Legal Aid Unit of the Ministry of Justice was published. The Legal Aid Unit is similar to the Public Defender's Office, but it provides legal representation to people with low financial capacity in civil law, compared to the defense attorney who works in the criminal field. , It received a limited resonance, despite two data having to light a flashing red light.



Although this is a summary report for 2019, the Ministry of Justice also attached preliminary data for almost all of 2020 - the year of the corona. The report shows a 22% increase in requests for assistance in issuing a protection order due to domestic violence, and a jump of about 60% in affected requests For neighbor disputes.

When talking about the effects of closures, one usually focuses on the economic impact.

But the prolonged stay in the houses, along with the general and economic uncertainty, often turn the house into a pressure cooker that explodes violently.

Similar to legal aid, the police and the Ministry of Welfare have also reported in recent months a significant increase in inquiries concerning domestic violence.

It can be assumed that the increase in inquiries concerning neighbor disputes is also related to this.



The discussion around corona limitations is usually framed as a discussion of economic considerations versus health considerations.

The public and decision makers must understand that victims of domestic violence are also victims of the corona, just like business owners and the sick, and put them into the system of considerations as well.

Israel may wake up the day after the corona plague with a new plague - which also destroys families and takes lives - and from which it is impossible to get vaccinated.

The ruling evokes the hope of the judge from Haifa

It was recently reported here that the court administration is refusing to uphold a ruling ordering it to provide data on social activist Guy Sommer data on cases that are conducted behind closed doors.

Instead of upholding the judgment, or filing an appeal, the courts administration filed an exceptional motion to set aside the judgment.

At a hearing held this week in the Jerusalem District Court, the parties agreed to set aside the ruling and be content with providing more general data.

The judge also ordered the courts to pay NIS 4,000 in expenses.



But a foundation of hope for Sommer and other transparency activists recently came from a ruling handed down by Judge Esperanza Alon of the Haifa District Court.

Alon's courtroom received an appeal filed by Adv. Iris Tzur and touched on the permit to publish a specific decision given by the family court in the city. By law, all cases in family courts are conducted by default behind closed doors and no details may be published without an express court permit. They constitute a significant share of all confidential cases.

Filed the appeal in which Judge Alon was hearing.

Adv. Iris Tzur

Judge Alon allowed the decision to be the focus of the hearing, but also added some statements of principle.

"The publication of decisions and judgments is essential for the proper functioning of the justice system and its success, and all judgments should be published and accessible to the public, while balancing and safeguarding opposing interests," the judge wrote.

According to her, it would be appropriate to publish all the rulings in the family courts, while deleting every identifying detail, even general ones, regarding the parties to the case.



"The publication of decisions and judgments in family law is an important matter in itself, and this without any binding dependence and binding connection on the legal or public importance of the decision or judgment," the judge wrote.

"The legal knowledge that emerges in the rulings of the courts is general social knowledge and not of man de is private ... The broader the body of knowledge available to the public and legal agents, the more realistic and correct picture will be obtained about the existing legal situation in Israel. "Fully enables the development of law, which is conditional on professional academic criticism, capable of analyzing the ruling, pointing out its failures, strengths and consequences, criticism that can serve as an incentive to change legislation and policy changes, change existing legal rules, and establish new legal rules."

There is a judge in Haifa.

Now one can only hope that they will hear it in Jerusalem.
