Hayut also said in conversations with associates that she is determined to continue what she sees as a mission. Another working meeting between Justice Minister Yariv Levin and Hayut is also expected soon, but the tension and suspicion regarding the government’s true willingness to soften the reform has not diminished. In terms of the progress of the plans for change, the reform, the ruling in the Deri matter did not slow down the pace, of course, but neither did it speed up – for the reason that the discussions in the Constitutional Committee are already moving at maximum speed.
