Budget Foundations Law (Amendment – Preventing Support for Institutions That Incite Draft Evasion) Bill

What does the bill do?

The bill adds a section to the Budget Foundations Law stating that a public institution will not receive support from the state budget if its activity included incitement to evade military service, as incitement is defined in the Penal Law. The explanatory notes state that there are educational and public institutions that receive budgetary support and at the same time encourage evasion of military service, thereby harming the equal burden, the rule of law and public trust. The bill seeks to prevent these institutions from benefiting from government support while acting contrary to the state's basic principles.
