Construction and Housing Minister Yaakov Litzman (United Torah Judaism) met with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Alternate Prime Minister Benny Gantz Wednesday in a bid to help broker an agreement between the Likud and Blue and White on a spending plan.

The Likud has called for passing a less comprehensive, single-year budget, while Blue and White has demanded the Likud honor the coalition agreement which calls for passing a two-year spending plan.

The current deadline for passing the state budget is August 15th.
