Coalition committed to making anti-leftist-NGO bill law

If the bill becomes law, an NGO seeking a tax exemption for a contribution from a foreign state will require ministerial and Knesset approval.

The so-called NGO Bill will be brought before the Knesset during the tenure of the new government, according to a clause in the coalition agreement between Habayit Hayehudi and Likud.

The wording of the bill submitted by Habayit Hayehudi stipulates that an NGO seeking a tax exemption for a contribution from a foreign state will require the approval of the defense and foreign ministers and the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee.

The NGOs likely to be affected by the bill are primarily human rights organizations identified with the left.http://www.haaretz.com/misc/article-print-page/.premium-1.655403?trailingPath=2.169%2C2.216%2C2.218%2C
