Ynet – After much disagreement among the coalition, The Knesset’s Special Committee for the Equal Sharing of the Burden Bill, headed by Knesset Member Ayelet Shaked, convened Wednesday evening to vote on the most dramatic article in the much-debated bill, which concerns the imprisonment of haredim who dodge military or civil service (criminal sanctions).
The committee members approved the issue of the sanctions, though to the astonishment of the participants, MK Moti Yogev (Bayit Yehudi) filed a request for a renewed vote (revision), setting an additional vote on the matter at a future date.
