Yishai: State's 2012 budget must be replaced with 'social budget'

Interior Minister Eli Yishai is demanding the government to discard the state's budget for 2012 and replace it with a new "social budget," which will remedy what he called the "distortions" presented in the Trajtenberg Report.

According to Yishai, the budget recommended in the report, which calls for vast reforms in the state's socioeconomic priorities, is faulty and has to be revised. (Kobi Nahshoni)
