The Minister of Economy is apparently completely giddy from the flattering polls.
Who can control him? Bibi is silent, paralyzed by fear of the coalition falling apart, and is moving on to the agenda of Bennett's crazy statements against the government, which should have led to his dismissal long ago. So will this nonsense about transparency hurt the leader of the Jewish Home? After all his ministries failed to submit their list of suppliers, The minister also did not submit his schedule.
Why would he move it? What do you mean the public wants to know? This public needs to know that we're tired of hiding behind the Tundas! That we warned about the tunnels! What, it has nothing to do with the schedule? Don't worry, they'll eat it up, and if not, tell them I don't have time to move the schedule because I'm so busy with Israel's security, meaning endless quarrels with Netanyahu, Ya'alon, and Uri Ariel.

Besides, if they see my schedule, God forbid they'll see how little I invest in the important things.
The Freedom of Information Movement will soon launch a fundraising campaign to fund all the petitions against those who whistleblower all over us. The goal is to redress the balance of public pay and punishment.
Whoever provides information may suffer some criticism for what is revealed, but he should feel that he did the right thing by providing the information, and whoever did not provide the information, even though an opinion from the Attorney General's Office requires him to do so, should reach a point where he both provides the information, pays money in court, and receives reprimands from the judges, in the hope that along the way they will also verify that he is providing the full information and not some pale shadow of the real schedule, as Silvan Shalom and Bogy Ya'alon did, for example.
The Minister of Economy has many powers in the area of law enforcement. Under him operate the ministry's inspectors in the areas of labor law, consumer protection law, and what not. I wonder where the minister derives the moral position to give a small grocery store owner a report for not marking prices, while he loudly trumpets the law?
The Attorney General has a position, which is considered legal, and many of his ministerial colleagues uphold it, but Bennett, it turns out, is above the law and one day he may be prime minister and they will repeal this stupid law, Freedom of Information, for example.
And it's impossible not to mention Yair Lapid for praise again. A detailed schedule, a little bit of blackness, from which you can learn a lot.
I read that he is being criticized for his many meetings with journalists. Okay, legitimate. But it should also be said that no minister in the government (except for Tzipi Livni and Yael German, who regularly publish their schedules) thought that the public was allowed to know how he spends most of his time.
By the way, in the previous round, Aharonovich and Israel Katz also submitted detailed schedules, from which we learned a lot (including good things) about what they do during their ministerial time.
