The Fines Law will be passed today in the Knesset plenum

Coalition Chairman, MK Mickey glows, Announced this morning (Thursday) in a tweet on Twitter that the fines law will pass today in its original wording, after last night no agreement was reached between the Likud, Blue and White and the ultra-Orthodox on the outline of the fines. With the agreement of Blue and White and the Likud, the Knesset plenum will convene today to approve the law in the second and third readings, after it has passed the Knesset’s Constitution Committee.

“We will work to have it painted today so that we can immediately begin enforcing all those who do not follow the guidelines. The Prime Minister, the Minister of Health and the Likud continue to work in every way for public health, both by bringing in millions of vaccines and by enforcing and reducing morbidity,” he tweeted. Glamor.

In blue and white, they responded with satisfaction to Zohar’s announcement: “It took time, but you understood: the law of Bnei Brak as the law of Herzliya. It would have been possible to save a life if you had not been busy with securities.” In blue and white, they demand that the law be passed today in the second and third readings, not only in the committee but also in the Knesset plenum. Both Blue and White and the Likud say that this is at the discretion and decision of Knesset Speaker Yariv Levin, who announced yesterday that the next meeting will be on Monday.

On behalf of the Chairman of the Constitution Committee, MK Jacob Asher (Torah Judaism), stated: “The wording of the law to increase fines was prepared last night for a vote in the Constitution Committee prior to its approval in the second and third readings. The Knesset, chaired by MK Eitan Ginzburg, has not yet convened a meeting to discuss the issue and decide whether there is a justification for claiming a new issue and therefore the Constitution Committee cannot convene to vote on the law.

“In blue and white, they take the fight against the Corona as a hostage in their political war with the Prime Minister and threaten not to support the Corona Restrictions Regulations in the government and the Knesset, ostensibly in the name of demanding the approval of the Fines Law. Their claim is fundamentally unfounded as the law could have been passed as early as last night in the Knesset plenum, the proposed wording was determined on the recommendation of the legal counsel and also blue and white representatives in the India Constitution Committee in closed talks that it is proper and balanced. It is unfortunate that there are those who insist on continuing to sanctify politics over the matter-of-fact and professional debate in order to tag the ultra-Orthodox public and tarnish it for a few votes at the ballot box. We will not take another part in this shameful show. “

Chairman of the Knesset Committee, MK Ethan Ginzburg, He said in an interview with the GLC: “We want to pass the fines law as determined by the government. I heard Mickey Zohar, until last night they fought for the ultra-Orthodox to lead the law. They wanted warnings and two fines, all to please the ultra-Orthodox. I hear they are ready to come to the original law, if so, we will pass it today in three readings and move forward“.

He added: “We want to pass the law as it stands because this is how a closure should be enforced and a constitutional committee should approve the law. The plenum should convene, if we pass in three readings it will be possible to convene the government, check data, It is possible to extend the closure without significant enforcement. “

The Constitution Committee is scheduled to convene at 1:30 p.m., after the Knesset committee removes from the agenda the requirement to declare one of the sections of the law a “new issue.” If it is approved by the committee, it will be submitted to the Knesset plenum for final approval on Monday. The Likud still intends to convene the Constitution Committee to approve the Fines Law, when the discussion will be chaired by MK Amit Halevi of the Likud and not Yaakov Asher.

As you may recall, last night the meeting of the Constitution Committee was blown up, which sought to reach one version of the Fines Law, which is acceptable to the entire government. This means that enforcement of the corona in these matters will continue as it has until today, so that fines of up to NIS 5,000 can be imposed, but it will not be possible to impose administrative closure orders on educational institutions.
