State Comptroller to probe reform of public broadcaster

State Comptroller Yosef Shapira instructs auditors to begin collecting materials regarding the reform of the public broadcaster, due to significant criticism on the way it’s been handled.

According to Channel 10, Shapira says he made the decision in line with policy “to conduct real-time auditing, given the volume of money involved, the fate of hundreds of workers and the matter’s public importance.”

His comments come in the wake of a heated discussion in the Knesset Finance Committee over the proposed legislation to overhaul the public broadcaster.
