Top Treasury official’s resignation said to have been ‘only a question of time’
Unnamed associates of Keren Terner Eyal tell Channel 13 news that her decision to resign was “only a question of time.”
“There is no place in the Treasury for a strong professional echelon and she drew conclusions,” they associates are quoted as saying.
Terner Eyal’s decision to resign follows that of Shaul Meridor, the head of the powerful Budget Department, and accountant general Rony Hizkiyahu.
Officials have charged Katz with pushing policies for political reasons with the goal of boosting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Likud party. Katz has also been accused of stifling any dissent by ministry officials.
