Despite the position of the Legal Adviser to the Government, Gali Beharev-Miara, the coalition will continue to promote the legal revolution and the discussions on it will take place next week in the Constitution Committee as planned.
The chairman of the committee, Member of Knesset Simcha Rotman, circulated the draft of the bill a short time ago, with minor amendments, and the members of the Knesset were informed that every day of the week, Sunday through Wednesday, discussions will be held under the title "Returning Justice to the Judicial System".
Some of the members of the committee The opposition resented the fact that the Constitution Committee in the Knesset has only been dealing with the legal reform in recent weeks and hardly allots time for other issues they want to discuss.

Earlier this evening, the ombudsman gave Justice Minister Yariv Levin her opinion on the reform, which she strongly criticized, and wrote that it would lead to "severe damage to the fabric of checks and balances between the authorities." "Acceptance of the proposed arrangement will lead to a regime structure in which the executive and legislative authorities have broad and virtually unlimited authority."
According to the ombudsman, the planned reform "does not have a built-in response to the possible fear of misuse of legislation or basic legislation for the purpose of circumventing judicial review, or of harming the nuclear characteristics of the state as a state Jewish and democratic".
Beharve-Miara added that the proposed arrangements are unusual compared to democratic countries in the world, and warned that they change the perception of the legal system as a professional, independent and non-political system.

The ombudsman criticized the way in which the legal revolution was planned. "The examination of the proposed changes dealing with the nuclear characteristics of the state as a Jewish and democratic state is done behind a veil of fog," she wrote. She added, "My opinion is presented with reservation, because only after the full picture is presented can an examination be conducted comprehensive and full of the planned changes to the basic characteristics of the system."
Beharve-Miara wrote that the proposed reform does not address the fact that the power of the governing authorities may be unlimited, "which is a sure recipe for harming human rights and proper administration." She emphasized, "The principle of separation of powers requires a system an independent and independent judiciary, which has the effective ability to audit the other two authorities."
