State Comptroller Michael Rabillo Responds to Petition Challenging His Appointment
State Comptroller Michael Rabillo submitted his response today, Tuesday, to the High Court of Justice regarding petitions opposing his selection for the role. In his filing, Rabillo argued that Israeli law allows honest people to act objectively and professionally even if they previously had ties to the appointing or audited bodies.
Rabillo said this is possible because of the safeguards in the Basic Law and the State Comptroller Law, which he said guarantee the comptroller’s independence. He stressed that, despite the objections raised against him, he will act in a state-minded, impartial manner in order to serve all citizens of Israel.
