Deputy Minister of Defense Rabbi Eli Ben-Dahan commented on the approval by the Jewish Home Central Committee of a proposal, according to which a steering committee will choose the party chairman.
"The members of the Central Committee have spoken with overwhelming majority. I am pleased that a decision favoring the party and benefitting religious Zionism was made. This is the time to congratulate my friend, Director General Nir Orbach, who led a democratic process and with the participation of the party's Knesset members," he said.
