Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The proposal amends the Deportation of Terrorists' Families Law by replacing the definition of "terrorist" with a broader definition of "terrorist or a person who encourages or incites terrorism". It also raises legal requirements: a decision on deportation will require consultation between the Minister of Defense and the Minister of Interior, receiving an intelligence opinion from the Shin Bet and a legal opinion from the Attorney General, and approval of the Administrative Affairs Court. This proposal applies to Israeli citizens and residents who have a family connection to people engaged in terrorist activity or assisting it.
