The Government of Israel has decided to impose on the Civil Service Commission to promote the implementation of the recommendations for fixed terms of office in senior positions in the civil service.
Allocating the priesthoods helps to refresh the ranks and promote the talented and outstanding, it also helps to transfer the knowledge accumulated during the priesthood in office and prevents burnout and organizational calcification.
The decision was made 12 years ago.
Government Resolution No. 4528, dated March 5, 2009, stipulates that the term of office of the Legal Advisers in Government Ministries will be limited to one term of seven years.
What has happened since then?
is nothing.
The Attorney General of the Civil Service Commission, Ron Doll, is still sitting in his chair very comfortably, for more than 20 years, waiting for his retirement until the calendar orders him to reach the age of 67. Not a single moment earlier.
In the room next to him sits the legal adviser in the Prime Minister's Office, Shlomit Barnea-Fargo.
Like Doll, Barnea-Fargo enjoys relaxing in her spacious 2nd-floor office for more than 20 years - and she, too, will hold the altar funds until she retires.
A lot of respect and flattery comes with the class and the bureaus, which often cover a little doing and professionalism.

Grinding prevention, refreshing the ranks, promoting the talented and outstanding, fair terms?
Not at Mandelblit's school.
The Civil Service Commissioner, Daniel Hershkovitz, shows signs of beating senior officials in all disciplines in various government ministries, but these disappear when discussing the legal advisers in government ministries, protected by Attorney General Mandelblit. The terms are applied to any official in the civil service, any This is not yet a legal adviser.
The defense also comes when dealing with a senior lawyer from Saladin who Mandelblit Hefetz visited despite a bright normative-value stain on his robe.
Acting State Attorney Amit Isman has three times extended his term as Haifa District Attorney, even though he served in this position for more than 8 years, for the absurd reason that no replacement was appointed for him. Isman left the county immediately, without a replacement, Hershkovitz and Mandelblit laughing all the way to good intentions - you know where.
The absurdity becomes clearer when one looks at the legal advisers who were elected to their positions after the Civil Service Commission applied the term of office to the legal advisers themselves.
Thus, for example, the legal adviser in the Ministry of Justice, Leah Rakover.
Yes Yes.
Leah served for many years as a legal advisor to the court administration and in order not to enter the private market, she chose to run for the position of legal advisor in Saladin.
The terms of the tender - which was closed to the public sector from the private sector - explicitly stipulate that the winner will serve a term of only seven years.
This is also stated in the employment contract signed by all the legal advisers who took office.
But in February 2018, just before the end of Rakover's tenure at the end of seven years, Mandelblit and Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked raised a decision at the cabinet meeting that extends the tenure of legal advisers in government ministries and benefits advisers in general - and the Attorney General for the past seven years. .
Shaked has firmly embraced the Mandelblit company throughout her tenure, as well as State Attorney Shai Nitzan.
Changes and corrections in Saladin were not on the agenda during her tenure there.
Four full years.
The legal advisers also received special protection regarding their dismissal procedure, which is directly controlled by Mandelblit and Hershkovitz personally, unlike any other state official.
Mandelblit protects his loyalists and emissaries in government offices.
Lawyers have a different law than the common people (only they "by chance" have not, until this moment, arranged for a financial settlement at the end of their term, as a "legal" excuse to extend their tenure indefinitely).
The ombudsman acts as one who provides protection to his trustees in order to defend himself - that no brave legal adviser will appear and shout that the king is naked while leaving the choir.
