What does the bill do?

The bill adds a section to the Israel Land Authority Law setting that the Authority will allocate land in open areas in the Negev and the Galilee, either in existing localities that have national priority or in new localities to be established for this purpose. The allocation will be free of charge and different from existing provisions. Ownership of the allocated land will not be transferred to the person who received rights in it, but will remain with the Authority.
