Bill to simplify import of electrical goods passes first reading in Knesset

A bill that will amend the law to make it easier for importers to bring a wider range of electrical goods into the country passes its first reading in the Knesset.

The amendment, proposed by the Energy Ministry, frees importers from the cost and bureaucracy of having special laboratories confirm the energy efficiency of appliances new to the Israeli market.

The manufacturers’ energy efficiency specifications will be sufficient.
