News Brief

(IsraelNN.com) The classic BaDatz Eida HaHareidis (Hareidi Congregation's Righteous Court) kosher certification organization might see substantial competition rise up soon. Yeshiva World News reported based on news source Chadrei Chadarim that the Agudat Yisrael, Belz, and Rabbi Rubin kosher certification organizations may soon unite under a title, "BaDatz Vaad HaRabbonim" (The Rabbis' Council's Righteous Court).

Gerrer Hasidut would not be a part of the conglomerate.

The joint effort is hoped to ease the financial straits of the highly-respected Rabbi Ruben's organization.

Repeated efforts throughout past decades, most of them minor at best, have failed to compete against the Jerusalem BaDatz Eida HaHareidis (The Jerusalem Hareidi Congregation's Righteous Court).
