With Knesset committee approval of a bill to require Rabbinut - TopicsExpress

With Knesset committee approval of a bill to require Rabbinut certification to all kosher restaurants and not reject restaurants on grounds of operation on Shabbat, attire of workers, etc, the certification standard would actually almost comply with court rulings for the first time. Nevertheless Following the approval of the bill, haredi MK Yisrael Eichler called it “part of the war to turn the state into a Reform ghetto.” “Those who observe the laws of kashrut will not surrender and will not rely on rabbinate kashrut licenses and restaurants will close if they don’t have haredi licenses,” he said. jpost/Jewish-World/Jewish-News/Bill-approved-to-make-restaurants-kosher-and-open-on-Shabbat-362739
