Yamina, New Hope MKs help defeat Likud-backed bill to restrict who has standing at High Court
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleKnesset members from the “change government” set to be sworn in next week defeat a bill that would limit who has standing to petition the High Court of Justice.
The bill, backed by Likud MK Miki Zohar, was opposed by lawmakers from Yamina and New Hope, right-wing parties in the emerging coalition that have supported curbing the High Court’s authority.
