What does the bill do?
The bill focuses on rehabilitating employment in communities located near the border in the north (up to 9 km from the border) and in the south (up to 7 km from the Gaza Strip). It renews the definition of 'preferred work' that grants eligibility for a grant, so that it will include work in tourism services, hotels, restaurants and touring in addition to existing fields such as agriculture and construction. The minister will be able to add more communities to the list. The start date is set for September 1, 2025.
