What does the bill do?
The law provides that where a complex inquiry is involved, an objection to the request arises, or the Administrator General does not see fit to approve the request, it will be transferred to the court for a decision. In addition, it was provided that the minister, with the approval of the Knesset Constitution, Law and Justice Committee, will be able to set types of assets and actions regarding which the guardian will be authorized to take action or represent the minor even without prior approval.
