UPDATE Finance Ministry aiming to cut millions from Judea and Samaria budget


 Financial Attack on The Jewish Residents of Yehuda and Shomron

Finance Ministry aiming to cut budgets transferred by former Min. Ayelet Shaked.

Last week, the Accountant General held a secret meeting attended by the legal office of the Finance Ministry, to discuss cutting tens of millions of shekels from the budgets of local authorities in Judea and Samaria.

According to a report by Israel Hayom, the meeting, which was kept secret, focused on how to bring about the decision, which was made by the Accountant General.

The budget in question was transferred to the local authorities in Judea and Samaria by former minister Ayelet Shaked. Now, the Finance Ministry wants to eliminate it.

The Finance Ministry's Accountant General responded to the reports, saying, "We have no intention of discussing the content of the meeting and the decisions which were made."

"At the same time, it must be emphasized that the Accountant General regularly holds professional meetings on various issues, among them on the issue of how to manage the debts of all of the local authorities, wherever they are, to the State.”

Tibi: Shaked froze Arab funds before Smotrich did

Arab MK comments on freezing of NIS 200 million for Arab communities by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich.


Where did the idea of stopping the budgets come from? From Ayelet Shaked," Tibi claimed on Channel 12 News. According to him, when Shaked was Interior Minister, "she stopped 670 million shekels from the development budget using the same claim, and to this day, they have not been given out."

"Smotrich, he said 'I want to be Shaked' and I'll add 200 million shekels in the current budget. It's completely different," he added.

Smotrich has frozen NIS 200 million in funds for Arab municipalities which had been promised by the previous government.

Interior Minister Moshe Arbel and Social Equality Minister Amichai Chikli have called on Smotrich to free up the funds so they can be transferred to the municipalities expecting them.
