Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The bill changes the definition of "large pharma retailer" in the Promotion of Competition in the Food and Pharma Sectors Law (2014), so that a pharma retailer will be defined as "large" when the sales turnover in its pharma stores exceeds 450 million shekels (provided it holds at least three pharma stores). The bill also adjusts the definition of "store" in Chapter C of the law so that it distinguishes between a regular store and a pharma store, and sets an exception for holders of online stores that do not meet the floor-area requirement.
