Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The proposal amends the Supervision of Prices of Goods and Services Law of 1996 by adding definitions for four specific types of bread, and authorizing the ministers to set by order levels and mechanisms of control over the prices of these breads at all points of sale. The explanatory notes state that in recent years the prices of these breads have risen, and this mainly affects low-income families; therefore the proposal aims to ensure access to healthy breads for the public.
