Bill anchoring Netanyahu-Gantz rotation deal passes first reading
The proposed law to anchor rotating premiership agreements to share the leadership passes its first reading in the Knesset plenum.
The law — pushed by the Likud and Blue and White parties, which signed a coalition agreement that says the law will be changed to accommodate such a mechanism — passes with 72 supporting it and 31 opposing.
The bill still need to pass two more readings. It will first be discussed at a special Knesset committee headed by Blue and White MK Eitan Ginzburg.
