A number of months ago, Education Minister Naftali Bennett announced he would block chareidi efforts to eliminated the regulation compelling teaching core subjects in schools receiving government funding.
However, according to a Channel 10 News report filed by Amri Meniv, the Knesset Law Committee on Sunday, 14 Iyar is going to eliminate this regulation and this is just what occurred despite Bennett’s opposition.
That means chareidi schools that do not teach core subjects are still entitled to state funding. The chareidim succeeded in undoing yet another regulation set into place during the previous administration when the chareidim were in opposition.
The bill is the initiative of MKs Uri Maklev, Yaakov Margi and Moshe Gafne.

This is a strange report, since the Hebrew Charedi sites reported this morning that the charedi proposal is being dropped since Bennet agreed (with the help of R. Meir Porush) to sponsor a government bill correctiong the situation.
Great more illetarate Jews that can’t support themselves
