The Knesset plenum last night (Tuesday) approved the Dayanim Law on first reading, with a majority of 59 supporters against 51 opponents.

The law, which determines the composition of the committee for appointing judges, fell in a plenary vote about two weeks ago due to a wrong vote by Knesset Speaker Miki Levy. The factions on the replacement government law, the most challenging for the coalition,

among the rejected proposals were a no-confidence motion by the Likud, which fell by a majority of 65 opponents against 50 supporters, a motion of no confidence by the joint list rejected by a majority of 53 opponents against six supporters, and a no-vote motion. Shas' trust and Torah Judaism was rejected by a majority of 59 opponents compared to 50 supporters.

After the storm over the offsetting of MK Meir Yitzhak Halevi from a new hope earlier this month, the opposition refused MK Zvi Hauser's request from his party to be offset while he was hospitalized at Hadassah-Ein Kerem Hospital in Jerusalem.

Hauser asked to do so by voting on all the laws except the Dayanim Law, because of the sensitivity of the ultra-Orthodox, but the opposition refused and said that if he could get one vote then there could be no offset against the other laws.

"Once again, the opposition is being bullied and insensitive," they attacked with new hope, claiming that Likud MK Yariv Levin was behind the order to cancel the agreement.

It is an opposition to humanity, not to the government. "

The Likud returned fire. "The opposition center, MK Yariv Levin, gave offset to Meir Yitzhak Halevi a few weeks ago, while he was sitting at seven, although the previous opposition did not do so in similar cases," they recalled. "An unprecedented and shameful one led MK Halevi to vote even though he was offset."

"Now the people of New Hope are increasing their efforts: on the one hand, they are seeking a set-off on the grounds that this is an MK who is in hospital, and on the other hand, they are making it clear that they will bring him to two votes on the Dayanim Law and the Basic Law. This is another cheap and disrespectful manipulation. "If MK Hauser needs an offset, as a new hope claims, he and his faction will clearly announce and pledge that MK Hauser will not appear for any vote, and give guarantees that they will not violate the offset as they did the previous time. Of course, we will be willing to offset him," .

His request was not granted.

The coalition will need a majority of 61 MKs to pass the Substitutional Government Law, which is intended to anchor the parity understandings between Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and Deputy Prime Minister Yair Lapid, as it is an amendment to the Basic Law.

The law was supposed to go to a vote about two weeks ago, but due to the absence of MK Vladimir Blyak Mish Atid, who fell in Corona, but there were no 61 fingers and the vote was rejected.

The Dayanim Law determines the composition of the committee for the appointment of Dayanim, and adds another representative from the government - who is to be Minister Zeev Elkin.

The law also increases the female representation on the committee and stipulates that two rabbinical claimants will serve on it (instead of one rabbinical claimant today).

The coalition has already suffered a blow with the Dayanim Law, which fell two weeks ago in a plenum vote due to a wrong vote by Knesset Speaker Miki Levy, and now hopes to complete its legislation in the second and third readings by the end of the week. The

White Nights are set
