The demand was raised at the meeting of the heads of the coalition in which Netanyahu was present. According to sources in the party, "If the change in the composition of the committee for the selection of judges and the cancellation of the disqualification of fundamental laws were approved in the first reading, this should also be promoted." Likud preferred to focus on the "core of the reform" in their opinion, but the ultra-Orthodox demanded that it be included as a solution to the recruitment issue

The heads of Torah Judaism demanded during the meeting of the heads of the coalition to vote already tomorrow (Monday) on the overcoming paragraph in the first reading, as part of the promotion of the legal revolution - this is what Wala learned!.

According to sources in the party, "There is no reason to wait. If the change in the composition of the committee for the selection of judges and the repeal of the disqualification of fundamental laws were approved in the first reading, this should also be promoted."

At the meeting, a final decision has not yet been made whether the bill will be put to a vote tomorrow in accordance with their demand or will be rejected once more.



Justice Minister Yariv Levin and the Chairman of the Constitution Committee, MK Simcha Rothman, have so far promoted the main part of the legal reform, which is the change in the composition of the Committee for the Selection of Judges and the elimination of the possibility of the High Court of Justice to review or disqualify basic laws, but at the same time avoided promoting the "overcoming clause" in the same Katsav. The bill was approved by the first reading committee, but Likud preferred to focus in the meantime on what it considers the "core of the reform." The ultra-Orthodox parties were outraged by this,

The ultra-Orthodox are demanding the promotion of the overcoming clause as part of the conscription law that grants exemption from service in the IDF as part of the "Torah and Art" arrangement. They believe that if the Knesset can enact laws rejected by the High Court with a simple majority, this law will also be able to be enacted without the High Court rejecting it. This is after years of the judges invalidating the laws advanced by the government and the Knesset on the grounds of "inequality."



The heads of Shas and Torah Judaism are very much avoiding public involvement in legal reform.

An ultra-Orthodox official explained that "for all these years we suffered from the High Court and no one there took care of us, but should we now turn this into a war between religious and secular people?

Any statement, demand or idea of ​​ours will cause harm and not benefit anything so we remain silent.

The Likud promotes the reform and we do not want to be at the forefront of all this.

Do we support this?

Certainly".
