Bill to anchor rotation agreement between Netanyahu, Gantz passes initial reading

A bill to change one of Israel’s quasi-constitutional Basic Laws to automatically enable the rotation agreement between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Blue and White party chairman Benny Gantz to take place passes its initial reading in the Knesset plenum.

The bill receives 62 votes in favor and 37 against.

The bill now goes to the Arrangements Committee, which must determine which Knesset Committee will ready the bill for the first of three additional readings it must pass to become law.
