Shas’ Meshulam Nahari has assumed his new post as Deputy Interior Minister, serving under newly-appointed Minister of the Interior Aryeh Deri, the Shas party leader.
The cabinet announced it approves the appointment and this cleared the way for Nahari to assume his new post. Nahari left the Ministry of Social Services where he served as deputy minister after a half year, unable to work side-by-side with Minister (Likud) Chaim Katz. Nahari explained Katz would not recognize his authority, refusing to work with him.
This compelled Deri to shift him to his new office.
