Proposal for an Amendment to the Planning and Building Law, 5725–1965 - "Kaminitz Amendment" (Amendment No. 116), 5717–2017
💬Since 2017, the "Kaminitz Law" has tightened enforcement against illegal construction throughout the country. However, in many localities—including Druze and Arab towns—there have been no approved master plans for years, meaning residents effectively have no way to obtain a building permit. It turns out that the law requires a permit—and the state is unable to issue one.
Bill to Amend the Commissions of Inquiry Law, 5729–1969

Bill - Representative Organization for Unrepresented Persons with Disabilities
💬Many groups of people with disabilities currently do not enjoy a regulated democratic mechanism for electing their representatives.
