Foreign funding bill to be revised at PM's request
None
The Prime Minister's bureau has asked MK Ofir Akunis, who initiated a bill limiting donations to leftist organization, to revise the bill following harsh criticism from Attorney General Yehuda Weinstein.
The new version will see a change in the criteria determining groups receiving funds from foreign governments and will distinguish between political foundations and aid foundations. Nevertheless, according to Akunis there will be no significant change. (Attila Somfalvi and Moran Azulay)
