The Knesset decided not to hold a repeat vote for choosing the state comptroller, rejecting a proposal from the High Court of Justice. The move directly contradicts the court's position on the matter.
The brief report says the parliamentary decision came after the High Court suggested that the selection process be held again. The Knesset instead stood by its original course and refused to reopen the vote.
The article does not provide further details on the reasons for the court's proposal, the timing of the vote, or the next legal steps following the Knesset's decision.
