What does the bill do?
The bill defines a "contributor to the state" as someone who served in the military, in national service or in national-civic service, or whose request to volunteer was rejected. It sets that being a contributor to the state will be weighed as part of the considerations in hiring and in hiring for the civil service, and that a benefit in receiving a public service for someone who wore a uniform will not be considered discrimination. In addition, the bill sets a preference in the allocation of land for housing and a right to student dormitories at state-supported educational institutions, taking into account their being a contributor to the state.
