In coalition flub, funding for school year not brought to Knesset
The legislation granting funding for schools to deal with the pandemic won’t be brought for a Knesset vote tonight, after the coalition apparently fails to gather enough lawmakers in parliament to support the bill.
“There was no majority and therefore it won’t come up [for a vote],” an official tells the Knesset channel.
The vote will now be delayed until after the school year begins on September 1, since the parliament begins a weeklong summer recess tonight.
