Finance Minister Avigdor Lieberman unveiled today (Monday) at a meeting of the Yisrael Beiteinu faction the outline of assistance to the self-employed. According to Lieberman, the outline is intended for small and medium-sized businesses with a business turnover of up to NIS 60 million. “Whoever proves a 5% decrease in revenue turnover in January-February, in such a case we will provide assistance up to NIS 600,000,” Lieberman said, adding: “I would like to thank Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and Deputy Prime Minister Yair Lapid and Deputy Minister In the line of responsibility that I try to lead. “In addition, Lieberman noted that this week the Ministry of Finance will hold a first discussion on the state budget.
Asked by Globes about possible changes to the package deal, Lieberman said again: “The package deal will only go through the format as we signed or will not go through at all.” Following the fact that Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz attacked the Ministry of Finance earlier today and accused the ministry of delaying aid to interns, Lieberman said, “I appreciate Horowitz very much but here there is a slight drop in tension and not everyone knows how to withstand all pressures. We signed an agreement for an outline for interns, which is signed by both the Minister of Health and the Minister of Economy. “
The finance minister has revealed that Horowitz is deliberately delaying assistance to the hospitals in protest that there are no agreements to open the outline of the interns. “Why are there other regulations delaying the internship debate? Among other things, hospital regulations. As long as the health minister has not signed the regulations we cannot inject money. Steering committees are also held hostage to change the interns’ outline. Another month hospitals will stop functioning. “Release the cosmetics and medical device reform. We need to run forward. If there is a new demand in interns, we need to discuss separately,” Lieberman said.
