Israel's Government Companies Authority has sent a letter to major state-owned enterprises warning them against political activity during the election campaign, according to N12's Yuval Sadeh. The Authority stated it has initiated a rolling review that will enable real-time monitoring of compliance.
The letter was sent to government companies employing more than 200 workers, but the Authority said it will focus on firms with a history of political organizing, specifically citing Israel Aerospace Industries, Israel Railways, and Ashdod Port.
The directive comes amid the transition government period that began last week, following the Attorney General's determination that Israel has entered a transition government requiring consultation on decisions that deviate from routine operations. The Government Companies Authority's move reinforces oversight of state-owned entities during the sensitive election period.
