The Change Bloc prepares its first legal move: the Attorney General in focus

The Change Bloc is gearing up for its first legal move: repealing the legislation to weaken the Attorney General's status is at the top of the agenda. Meanwhile, Matan Kahana is expected to be appointed Speaker of the Knesset, Lieberman will serve as temporary chair of the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, and Bennett has submitted 17 bills.

The Change Bloc, which includes Yair Lapid, Avigdor Lieberman, Gadi Eisenkot, Naftali Bennett, and Yair Golan, is preparing for its first legal move, centered on the Attorney General. Alongside coalition negotiations, the bloc plans to use its Knesset majority to first advance the repeal of legislation weakening the Attorney General's status, and later the repeal of the change to the composition of the Judicial Selection Committee. Additionally, special committees are planned to promote legislation on incapacity, a state commission of inquiry into the October 7 events, and the media law. The scope of legislation is limited due to the transition period, and the ability to complete these moves depends on the pace of Knesset work and legal constraints. Meanwhile, the bloc is working to establish its control over Knesset committees: Matan Kahana is expected to be appointed Speaker of the Knesset, Avigdor Lieberman will assume the role of temporary chair of the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee tomorrow (Monday), and Liran Avishar Ben-Horin will be appointed temporary chair of the Finance Committee. Naftali Bennett announced that his party has submitted 17 bills, including the Servicemen's Law and the establishment of a state commission of inquiry.
