"This step is in addition to a series of steps to encourage the integration of young people in donations for the State of Israel, both in the IDF tracks and in the national civil service tracks in recognition of their important activities for society.
Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said: "Girls and members of the National Service have been doing holy work for many years, all over the country, giving their heart and soul for the people of Israel. We value and cherish them - in deeds, not in words. , That's how it was worth raising the national service wage - and that's what we do today. This is a big and happy news. I want to say to the sons and daughters of the national service - we love you. I want to thank my friend, Finance Minister Lieberman, for his cooperation "MK Nir Orbach, who worked hard for the issue."
