01 · THE DISPATCH

MK David Bitan (Likud) has proposed limiting the number of reserved slots (shiryonim) on the Likud party list for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to three, according to a report by Amit Segal (N12). In Israeli political terminology, a "shiryon" is a guaranteed spot on a party's Knesset slate, typically reserved for senior figures or coalition agreements. The proposal, if advanced, would restrict Netanyahu's ability to secure safe seats for allies or himself beyond three positions. The move is seen as an internal Likud maneuver, though its legislative path and leadership support remain unclear. No further details on the proposal's timing or formal status have been reported.
