Bill allowing small towns to have acceptance boards progresses
None
The Knesset's Constitution, Law, and Justice Committee has approved in its second and third reading a bill allowing communities of under 500 people to appoint acceptance committees, which will be able to reject new residents who do not answer to a specific set of criteria.
The bill was proposed 10 years ago, when the High Court of Justice forced Katzir to accept the Kaadan family into its midst. (Zvi Lavi)
