Ze'ev Jabotinsky (Commemoration of His Memory and Work) Law (Amendment – Increasing the Activity Budget and Funding of the Institute) Bill

Translated from Hebrew: הצעת חוק זאב ז'בוטינסקי (ציון זכרו ופועלו) (תיקון - הגדלת תקציב הפעילות ומימון המכון)

TL;DRA proposal to increase the annual budget for funding the activity of the Jabotinsky Institute to NIS 5 million, with an annual update according to the price index.

Translated from Hebrew

What does the bill do?

The bill changes the Ze'ev Jabotinsky Law of 2005 by adding a provision that funding for the institute's activity in Israel will be an amount of no less than NIS 5 million a year. The amount will be updated every year on January 1 according to the rate of increase in the consumer price index published by the Central Bureau of Statistics. The explanatory notes state that the current funding is not sufficient for maintaining ongoing activity, developing content and expanding the opening hours of the museum and visitor center that commemorate Jabotinsky's legacy and work.
