Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu informed President Isaac Herzog’s office that the coalition does not plan to stop legislating the “reasonableness” bill to allow for talks with the opposition, the Kan public broadcaster reports.
According to the report, Netanyahu wants the bill to be passed into law before the Knesset breaks for summer recess in the coming weeks.
The report also quotes unnamed senior coalition officials threatening that the government will fall if the bill is not passed.
