Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich welcomed the ruling, linking Eliyahu's continued service to plans for advancing settlement in the Negev and Galilee regions. Smotrich stated that transferring the settlement revolution from Judea and Samaria to the Negev and Galilee is crucial for Israel's future, emphasizing that the ILA is a primary tool for this initiative.

The minister expressed his happiness that Eliyahu, who he described as having proven "impressive execution and action capabilities," will continue in his role to help advance the plan.
