Supreme Court judges Neal Hendel, Dafna Barak Erez and Meni Mazuz rejected on Thursday the petition of the head of the Western Wall Yeshiva Rabbi Baruch Wiedrr, Rabbi Yossi Cohen and Dina Teana against the change in the composition of the Ministerial Committee on Holy Places.

The judges ruled that the government's decision to change the composition of the committee and transfer the authority of the Culture and Sport Minister Miri Regev and Justice Minister Ayelet Shaked as members of the committee to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Energy Minister Yuval Steinitz is a legal decision.
