Constitution, Law and Justice Committee Chairman Simcha Rotman opened the discussion and apologized for the unusual incident between him and the committee's legal adviser Gur Bligh. Rotman said, "Yesterday was not a good case. We are working it out between us – the committee's legal adviser and I. We know how to get along, and I am sure we will do so." MK Gilad Kariv also commented: "I reacted very sharply to the incident, and I assume that contributed to raising tensions and I'm sorry about that." Yesterday, Rotman was heard whispering in Bligh's ear, to which he responded: "You will not threaten me!".
