AG freezes all coalition funds, deeming them budgetary source for war efforts

Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara has decided to freeze all coalition funds, deeming them budgetary sources meant to fund war expenses during the ongoing conflict with the Hamas terror group.

Baharav-Miara’s deputy for economic law, Meir Levin, writes in response to a query that any use of money promised to certain parties as part of political agreements for anything other than the war-related efforts requires a specific cabinet resolution that will be subject to judicial review on its necessity.
