Deputy Minister Meir Porush sent a letter to head of the treasury Budget Department, Amir Levy, pointing out that coalition agreements with Yahadut Hatorah are not being honored.
About a month ago, Porush sent a letter which remained silent, in which he points out that Article 45 of the coalition agreement between Likud and Yahadut Hatorah, the return of funds to chareidi schools taken by Shai Piron in the previous administration, has yet to be actualized. Porush acted as he did in the hope of achieving his objective without rocking the fragile coalition that has a one-seat majority.
That letter was sent behind the radar, with discretion however, this week Porush sent a second letter, an urgent letter. According to the complex formula detailed in his letter, Porush explains the treasury owes the chareidi schools NIS 17 million.
