Herzog calls for broad consensus on judicial reform at judges' swearing-in

President Isaac Herzog on Tuesday evening hosted the swearing-in of 79 new judges, using the ceremony to address the government's judicial reform push. He said public trust in the judiciary is built daily, not through headlines, and voiced support for regulating the separation of powers via a Basic Law on Legislation — but insisted any such framework must rest on broad agreement. His remarks come as Finance Minister Smotrich and MK Rothman launch a legislative plan for the next Knesset term, and as the High Court hears petitions against the judicial selection reform.
