Protection of Israeli Public Figures Against Activity of the International Criminal Court in The Hague Against the State of Israel Bill

What does the bill do?

The proposal prohibits Israeli authorities from transferring information, documents or legal assistance to the court in The Hague without the approval of an authorized official. It also prohibits extraditing people to the court, requires the state to fund legal defense for defendants in proceedings against the court, and imposes prohibitions on conducting economic activity with the court and with parties assisting it. In addition, the proposal sets criminal penalties for anyone who transfers information to the court without authorization, and sanctions on foreign parties assisting it, including a ban on entry into Israel.
