Just before the end of the year the Finance Committee approved additional budgetary transfers in the 2018 budget, amounting to NIS 2.35 billion.
About NIS 1.7 billion for the Defense Ministry budget, about NIS 650 million for Holocaust survivors. This framework was intended to finance new allowances and increase allowances for survivors whose situation deteriorated due to long-term care, to cover erosion of reparation payments from Germany and payments to widows of Holocaust survivors.
