What does the bill do?
The proposal sets legal rules for the management of rabbinic endowments, which are assets dedicated to public, religious or family purposes. The rabbinical court will receive exclusive jurisdiction over matters related to the creation, management and dissolution of these endowments. The proposal details the roles and duties of the trustee (who handles the assets), including keeping accounts, prudent investment of funds, avoiding conflicts of interest, and appropriate compensation. The registrar of rabbinic endowments will report publicly and a central register of all endowments will be kept.
