Establishment of a Hospital in the City of Sakhnin (Legislative Amendments) Bill
Translated from Hebrew: הצעת חוק הקמת בית חולים בעיר סח'נין (תיקוני חקיקה)
TL;DRA proposal to establish a public hospital in the city of Sakhnin and to change laws relating to planning, land and execution of the project.
Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The proposal amends three pieces of legislation: amending the Public Health Ordinance to impose on the director a duty to establish a hospital in Sakhnin; amending the Israel Land Authority Law to allocate land to the city within a defined period of time; and amending the Planning and Building Law so that a planning body will discuss the plan to establish the hospital within a month of the submission of the request. The explanatory notes state that Sakhnin is a city with significant population growth, and that it has no government hospital, which complicates access to medical services for its residents.
