Official summary of the law (Knesset)

The amendment to the Jewish Religious Services Law (Amendment No. 26) adds Section 11A1, which establishes that out of the regular government participation amount in each fiscal year, 5% will be set aside as a reserve to be used to cover unforeseen expenses of the religious councils. The reserve will be distributed during the last three months of the fiscal year, in accordance with criteria to be set by the Minister of Religious Services. If the reserve amount is not utilized, it will be distributed among the councils according to their relative share in the government's regular participation amount. An additional amendment in Section 11E establishes clear provisions for how a change in the distribution of the reserve will be carried out if the amount of government participation changes during the year – before or after the distribution of the reserve.
