Transport Minister Yisrael Katz responded on Sunday to the strike launched by driving testers throughout the country, in protest against the launch of a tender to privative the administration of driving tests.

“The Histadrut has learned nothing from the social revolution. It again displays support for strong monopolies at the expense of the public. 100 testers are holding hundreds of thousands of youths and soldiers hostage, while Histadrut organizes strikes and supports them.”
