More than NIS 500 billion: Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and all department heads in the Ministry of Finance are now (Monday) presenting the state budget to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Kirya in Tel Aviv. The location of the meeting is apparently related to the huge demonstrations near the Knesset, which brought tens of thousands to the streets of the capital people.
The highest budget in the country's history.

After the Prime Minister approves the budget, and may disapprove of some chapters of the Settlements Law, the final document will be submitted for approval by the government, which will hold a meeting to approve the budget and the law on February 23.

As mentioned, for the first time in the history of the state, the state budget will be higher than NIS 500 billion, this is also against the background of the high inflation that was in 2022, which is expected to be high in the 2023 budget year as well.
