The Coalition announced Wednesday afternoon that a planned vote on a key element of the Netanyahu government’s judicial reform plan has been cancelled.

Following a debate earlier this week by the Knesset’s Constitution, Law and Justice Committee, the Knesset plenum had been scheduled to vote Wednesday on the Override Clause, an amendment to the country’s Basic Laws which would explicitly empower the Knesset to veto Supreme Court rulings overturning Knesset laws.

The bill, one of the most controversial in the judicial reform package, is aimed at curbing judicial activism by the high court – though some critics on the Right, such as attorney Yoram Sheftel have argued that without a constitution, the Supreme Court has no right to overturn Knesset laws. The Override Clause, they argue, effectively grants the Supreme Court a right to judicial review of Knesset laws.

In addition to the Override Clause bill, the Coalition also cancelled a vote planned for Wednesday on legislation aimed at allowing former Interior Minister Aryeh Deri to be appointed back to the government, after the Supreme Court overturned his appointment last month. READ MORE
