Official summary of the law (Knesset)

The law establishes that where a public service is provided according to a queue, the service provider shall provide the service to a pregnant woman without waiting in the queue, except in places where an appointment can be scheduled in advance, before arrival at the location. The service provider may require the presentation of a medical document to prove the pregnancy. It is further proposed to define "public service" for this purpose as a service provided to the public or to an indeterminate part thereof by a public authority or at a public place, by way of a face-to-face encounter, excluding medical treatment. It is also proposed that persons with disabilities and senior citizens over the age of 80 be given priority over pregnant women.
