Defense Minister Benny Gantz and Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit have been calling on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to allow for the appointment of a permanent justice minister.
Gantz was serving as interim justice minister until April 1, from which point the position has been vacant.
A cabinet vote is required to appoint a justice minister, but both Netanyahu and Gantz must agree first to bring the matter to a vote.
