Minister of Justice Ayelet Shaked welcomed new Supreme Court justices Yosef Alron and Yael Vilner and newly appointed Deputy Chief Justice Hanan Melcer, at their swearing-in ceremony at the President's Residence.
"Israeli society has always encouraged debate and disagreements. It is precisely for that reason that I endeavored, and still do, to diversify the bench and to populate it with people of differing opinions. The judiciary has room for everyone," Shaked said.
Shaked also congratulated new Supreme Court Chief Justice Esther Hayut on her swearing-in. "I'm sure you'll be a true partner in strengthening the legal system and promoting the public's trust in it," she said.
