      It’s a strengthening of the courts - or returning to their previous strength before the law took effect.

      With the bill’s passage into law, the High Court may no longer strike down administrative decisions that are deemed “extremely unreasonable,” beyond the scope of what a responsible and reasonable authority would undertake. The standard may no longer be applied to decisions made by the prime minister, the cabinet as a whole, or any specific minister. It also bars its use against a minister’s decision not to use his or her authority, and on ministers’ appointments of government workers.

        So basically, the Israeli Supreme Court can overrule the PM/President?
