Before the dissolution of the Knesset: The Constitution Committee will discuss a law that will prevent Netanyahu from forming a government

The debate on the law will be held on Sunday alongside the bill to dissolve the 24th Knesset, although the chances of its approval are low.

This is in order to prevent MK Orbach, who retired from the coalition, from disrupting his promotion in the Knesset committee he heads.

The Knesset's Constitution Committee will discuss the Knesset dissolution law on Sunday, the committee's chairman, MK Gilad Karib, announced today (Thursday).

The discussion on the preparation of the proposal for the first reading will take place despite the fact that the Knesset's legal advice has determined that it has no authority to do so.

The move is intended to build a "bypass Orbach" route for fear that MK Nir Orbach, who retired from the coalition, will delay the dissolution of the Knesset in order to achieve political achievements from the Likud. 

According to Karib, the two debates will take place in accordance with Article 80 of the Knesset Regulations.

First, at nine o'clock, the committee will hold a discussion on the "defendant's law," and about two hours later on the bill to dissolve the 24th Knesset.

"The Israeli public can not be held hostage to political exercises," he explained.

"Once the Knesset has voted by a unanimous majority on early elections, the process must be completed quickly and efficiently.

To the extent that the Knesset committee does not advance the process at the required speed.

We will do this through the Constitution Committee. "

Laws and the formation of the government. "

It was approved in the first reading in the Knesset plenum. Opposition parties claim that the move is intended to put pressure on them to compromise on the date of the election and promote certain laws before the dissolution of the Knesset. 

The Likud said in a response that "even in North Korea they are not trying to prevent the election of the leading candidate for prime minister during the election campaign. "
