Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The bill amends the Mandatory Tenders Law by adding a new section defining a "surplus food donor" business as a business that donates food for rescue in certain quantities (at least half a ton per month or a ton per year). When two or more bids in a tender have the same highest weighted score, the bid of a surplus food donor business will be chosen, provided it is accompanied by an accountant's certification and an affidavit from a food rescue organization confirming its donation.
