The Knesset's Constitution Committee chaired MK Simcha Rothman has convened to discuss proposed legal reforms.
The opposition boycotted the debate. "As members of the Constitution Committee from the opposition factions, we will not participate in these non-democratic debates held without adequate professional background and legal opinion, and in complete contradiction to the practice and procedure of the Knesset in general and the Constitution Committee in particular, and while blatantly ignoring the Knesset's legal advice," it stated.
