Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The proposal adds a section to the Patient's Rights Law (1996) that prohibits bringing in and possessing chametz and food that is not kosher for Passover in medical institutions during the holiday. The director of a medical institution may authorize an employee to prevent the bringing in or possession of such food. The provision will not apply to a medical institution that does not present itself as kosher. The amendment defines the Passover period as a period that begins on the fourteenth of Nisan each year.
