Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The proposal states that the port director or their representative must complete the preliminary service (berthing a ship at the dock and starting unloading) within 72 hours from the moment the ship arrives at the port. Saturdays and holidays will not be counted in calculating the time. If the service is not provided within the maximum time, the handling fees paid to the port will be reduced by 5 agorot per ton of cargo for each full hour of delay. The minister may, with the consent of the Minister of Finance, enact regulations to implement the law.
