Deputy Attorney General Sharon Afek and five other senior Justice Ministry deputies will brief the Knesset Constitution Committee on the split bill's implications for their respective areas, at the request of the Attorney General's Office. Each deputy will address how the law would affect central issues in their domain.
The Knesset Constitution Committee has invited six senior deputies to the Attorney General to present their professional assessments of the proposed law to split the Attorney General's office. Deputy Attorney Sharon Afek, Dr. Gil Limon, Avital Sompolinsky, Dr. Gil Ad Noam, Carmit Yulis, and Dr. Yuval Roitman will participate in the hearing, each addressing the law's impact on core issues within their respective portfolios.
The hearing builds on the committee's marathon debate that began on June 10, as The Zioneer reported, when committee chair MK Simcha Rothman announced the law was expected to take effect on January 1, 2027. The current session aims to provide the committee with direct professional input from the Justice Ministry's senior legal staff before moving toward the bill's second and third readings.
The Attorney General's Office requested the deputies' participation, signaling the depth of the institutional review of a bill that would restructure Israel's top legal advisory framework. No vote or further timeline was announced.
