Elected lawmakers to be sworn in on April 30 — Knesset statement
Elected members of the 21st Knesset will be sworn in on April 30 at 4 p.m., the Israeli parliament announces.
The law dictates the swearing in ceremony should take place 14 days after the elections, but the Knesset speaker uses his authority to delay it due to the Jewish festival of Passover and the Christian festival of Easter.
