השר שיקלי המוביל את ועדת השרים להחלפת היועמ”שית כתב לבהרב-מיארה: “תינתן לך האפשרות לפרוש את טענותייך”.
Minister Amichai Chikli, chair of the ministerial committee for the dismissal of the Attorney General, on Monday summoned Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara for a hearing regarding her position.
The hearing is scheduled for next Tuesday.
“As part of the discussion, which will serve as a pre-dismissal hearing, you will have the opportunity to present your arguments, if any, against the government’s intention to consider your removal from office,” Chikli wrote to Baharav-Miara.
On Sunday night, Kan News reported that Baharav-Miara is not expected to attend the hearing.
The government on Sunday approved Justice Minister Yariv Levin’s proposal to initiate a dismissal process against Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara.
Immediately after approval, Minister Levin approached the designated ministerial committee to request a hearing for the Attorney General, in accordance with the newly-approved procedure.
Under the plan presented, the AG could be dismissed not only after consulting the selection committee that appointed her, but also following a hearing before a special ministerial committee. That committee will be comprised of representatives from all coalition parties except United Torah Judaism, which has announced its support for dissolving the Knesset.
