Israeli High Court freezes key provisions of broadcast reform law

“There is no meaning to an order that repeals a law or 'suspends' a law. There is no legal source of authority for such an action," said Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi.

🗞️ In-depth summary

Israel's High Court has temporarily frozen key provisions of the Communications (Broadcasting) Law, passed by the Knesset on June 16, following petitions from eight groups. The court, led by Justice Ofer Grosskopf, stated that the petitions raised "weighty questions" regarding the law's procedural and substantive aspects, particularly concerning immediate changes such as the removal of restrictions on news station broadcasts and the abolition of separate licensing for general and news programming. Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi, who spearheaded the law, criticized the court's intervention, stating, "There is no meaning to an order that repeals a law or 'suspends' a law. There is no legal source of authority for such an action." Critics argue the law aims to politicize media and subordinate the press to the government, while proponents, like Karhi, claim it fosters competition and offers the public greater freedom of choice.
