The Yamina party has announced that the Settlement Ministry will remain in the hands of Prime Minister-delegate MK Naftali Bennett, after Jewish Home Chairwoman Hagit Moshe turned down Bennett's offer to take the ministry.
Yamina is still working to persuade Moshe to take the position, which was promised her in exchange for her party throwing its weight behind Yamina and backing out of the March elections.
