מכה לגוש השינוי: המהלך המשמעותי של איזנקוט נבלם על ידי היועמ"שית

The "Change Bloc" plans to advance legislative initiatives in the Knesset during Gadi Eisenkot's mandate to form a government. However, Knesset Legal Advisor Shagit Afik has not approved the establishment of numerous temporary committees at this stage. According to reports, the plan now involves a smaller number of committees that will be established and operate gradually, focusing primarily on urgent legislation and laws with imminent effective dates.

A temporary Constitution Committee is expected to be formed to address the repeal of three laws from the judicial reform: the law changing the status of the Attorney General, the law altering the composition of the Judicial Appointments Committee, and the Police Internal Investigations Department law. Additionally, a special committee will be formed to discuss the Basic Law: The Government, aiming to repeal the "impeachment law" passed in the previous Knesset. Another committee is being considered to repeal the Communications Law of former Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi, parts of which have already been blocked by the High Court of Justice.

Beyond legislative committees, the "Change Bloc" intends to establish oversight committees without legislative authority. These will focus on issues such as the rehabilitation of the North and South, and matters concerning the Arab society. The Joint List is expected to head the committee for Arab society affairs, while Ra'am is slated to lead another oversight committee on an undecided topic.

The Knesset's legal stance stems from interim period limitations, which restrict the advancement of non-urgent legislation until a new government is formed. Given the limited time remaining for Eisenkot's mandate, the committees are expected to be established sequentially rather than concurrently, which will likely significantly reduce the scope of legislation that can be advanced during this period.
