In recording, Haredi MK says inspectors to enforce Shabbat laws

An ultra-Orthodox lawmaker says hundreds of inspectors will soon begin enforcing laws pertaining to Shabbat, according to a recording released by Hadashot TV news.

In the recording, United Torah Judaism’s Moshe Gafni says the inspections will begin in two months.

He also says a future non-religious interior minister will not be able to reverse the implementation of legislation passed last week, allowing the interior minister to cancel city bylaws that permit businesses to open on Shabbat.
