Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said on Sunday that he expects that after reducing the reasonableness standard, the coalition will promote the bill to change the composition of the Judicial Selection Committee.

In an interview with Reshet Bet, Smotrich stated: "I predict that the next step, after the reasonableness standard, is the change to the composition of the Judicial Selection Committee."

Later in the interview, Smotrich discussed the remarks by Minister of Education Yoav Kisch, who said that the override clause would not be promoted: "I can not say that the override clause is off the table."

Earlier Sunday, the Minister of Education told Galai Tzahal (IDF Radio) that with the exception of the reasonableness standard, the coalition had dropped the majority of the planned reforms.

"We made the responsible decision to only promote matters that have a consensus. We made major concessions - the coalition won't have a majority on the judicial selection committee, there will be no Override Clause with a 61-seat majority, and changing the composition of the judicial selection committee is off the agenda," Kisch stated.
