‘PM made electrician work in his Caesarea home on Yom Kippur’

The State Comptroller’s special report says the Netanyahu family called an electrician to come to the prime minister’s private residence in Caesarea, at the expense of the Israeli taxpayer, nearly every weekend between September and November 2009, including on Yom Kippur, Ynet reports.

State Comptroller Yosef Shapira devoted a special clause in his report to electrical work carried out in the Caesarea mansion. When work needs to be carried out in the PM’s private home and there is doubt on whether to finance it privately or from public money, the “Committee of Three” needs to approve funding the work – a panel of three senior employees working in the Prime Minister’s Residence in Jerusalem.
