Member of Knesset Motti Yogev (Jewish Home) has welcomed the agreement with haredi-relgious parties to keep them in the coaltion saying, "This is a good government and a positive agreement."

Writing on Twitter, Yogev said, "I insist that the insertion of a religious scholar into the committee for the granting of work permits on the Sabbath should be required, a religious scholar with an understanding of the real world such as Rabbi Yaakov Ariel or Rabbi Mordechai Halperin. Such a personality would know how to balance the permissible and the forbidden, essential or not."
