Opposition members of the Constitution, Law and Justice Committee ask Knesset legal adviser Sagit Afik to instruct they be given more time to submit objections to the so-called reasonableness bill, in an effort to push off tomorrow’s scheduled vote to approve the contentious measure for its final plenum readings.

In a letter to Afik on behalf of the opposition lawmakers, Yesh Atid MK Yoav Segalovitz swipes at committee chairman Simcha Rothman’s handling of the deliberations and requests they be provided today with the minutes of all the panel’s meetings on the legislation.
