Gov't ratifies draft of governance bill
The Ministerial Legislation Committee approved the draft version of the "governance bill" submitted by Knesset Member David Rotem of Yisrael Beiteinu. The proposal will be brought for a vote at the Knesset plenum.
The bill is aimed to significantly complicate the passing of no confidence motions in the Knesset plenum, limit the number of cabinet ministers to 19 and raise the electoral threshold to 4% of the general vote. (Moran Azulay)
