TL;DR

Likud Constitution Committee chairman Haim Katz clarified that the committee will convene on Thursday at 20:00 in the Likud faction in the Knesset, as originally scheduled. The extension request, Katz explained, was submitted as a precaution to allow flexibility in the Prime Minister's schedule, not as a final decision.

01 · THE DISPATCH

The Likud Constitution Committee, chaired by MK Haim Katz, is set to meet on Thursday at 20:00 in the Likud faction in the Knesset, as originally scheduled. The meeting had been postponed from Tuesday to Thursday, as The Zioneer reported on July 6, due to scheduling constraints of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Following a request for an extension — which raised questions about a possible further delay — Katz clarified on Wednesday that the extension was filed as a precautionary option, not a final decision. He emphasized that the committee would convene as planned. The committee has been at the center of internal Likud dynamics over the past month, with several meetings delayed amid disagreements over the party's primary process.
