Member of Knesset Dov Khenin (Joint Arab List) gave a veiled criticism of the regulation law for Judea and Samaria during debate in the Knesset Interior Committee on stricter penalties for illegal building.
Khenin said, "On the same day, at the same Knesset: in one room - they are preparing construction by settlers on the private land of someone else and in the next room - they are advancing the process of demolitions of the homes of Arab citizens who build on their own land."
