PMO: AG directive effective retroactively, voiding dismissal of Israel Prize judges
Sources at the PMO said the decision to desist from interfering with the Israel Prize was effective retroactively, thus voiding the termination of two judges from the prize's committee.
The prime minister also decided that, in the future, the decision on the make-up of the judging panels for the Israel Prize will be taken by the professional echelon of the Education Ministry and not the head of the ministry.
