ChairmanDannyDayan of the Yesha Council of Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria expressed regret, Sunday, at the three-month postponement ofthe voteon the"Migron Law" by the Ministerial Committee on Legislation at the request of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. The bill would have used legislation to authorize communities in the region that are currently deemed illegal. Decisions would be in the hands of district-court judges with knowledge of property law.
Dayan said,"This is an utter shirking of responsibility on the part of the government.Thisproposal strengthens therule of law andindividual rightsand needs togainwidespread support." He added, "The currentlegal situationabsurdand intolerable. Currently a captain in the Civil Administrationdecidesto destroy a community.Under the proposal, itwould be a district judge.What'smorelogicalthan that?Whenthe governmentis indecisive,that's what happens."
