However, the office of United Torah Judaism chairman Minister Yitzhak Goldknopf denies this. In a special statement issued by his office, it was stated: "The report on Channel 12 is not true.".
The statement from the Housing Minister's office also said: "In a meeting held between the Gedolei Yisrael and the political leadership of the United Torah Judaism party, it was decided that time would be given to advance the regularization of the status of yeshiva students until Shavuot.
""In recent days, the son of the Maran Admor of Gur, Rabbi Nehemiah Alter, met with the leadership of Degel HaTorah, Rabbi Lando and Rabbi Hirsch, where it was agreed that without progress in regulating the status of yeshiva students, a meeting would be held with party representatives to determine the next steps; withdrawal from the coalition or promotion of the Knesset Dissolution Law.".
