Sources in the legal advisory to the government said that even after the removal of a clause, the very passage of the Basic Law could affect future petitions on conscription and funds, and all government work, describing the law as a 'compass.' The assessment is single-sourced.
Sources in the legal advisory to the government told a reporter Thursday that the Basic Law passed by the Knesset — even after the removal of a controversial clause — could serve as a legal compass that influences future High Court petitions on military conscription and budget allocations, as well as general government work. The statement was attributed to unnamed sources. The debate over the High Court's authority to review Basic Laws has been a major political issue, as previously reported by The Zioneer in prior coverage.
