Minister of Transport Bezalel Smotrich (Jewish Home) called on Prime Minister Netanyahu to reject the attempts of the courts to take powers for themselves, in a way that is contrary to the law and democracy, and to prevent the taking of the Minister of Transportation's responsibility and authority over construction in Judea and Samaria.
"This is a definite political issue that lies at the heart of the political echelon's authority and the legal system must not intervene," Smotrich said.
