MK Gafni Tables Three Proposals on First Day of Summer
Session
By Eliezer Rauchberger
On Monday 19 Iyar, the first day of the summer session, MK
Rabbi Moshe Gafni tabled three new bills.
One of the proposals would prohibit the state from denying
former Gaza Strip residents uprooted from their homes
benefits or compensation they are entitled to under the
Disengagement Law simply because they already receive other
support under other programs.
Another proposal would eliminate the need to file a new
request for property tax discounts every year.
The third proposal would ban the distribution, sale and
manufacture of dangerous toys. According to the bill,
violators would face four years' imprisonment. Rabbi Gafni
claims that because of the existing law's inadequacies every
year we see children who are injured and harmed by dangerous
toys, particularly around Purim.
