Government denounces Israeli bill slashing PA money over stipends paid to
Palestinian prisoners’ families

RAMALLAH, February 18, 2018 (WAFA - Officila PLO news agency) – The national
reconciliation government Sunday denounced Israel’s Ministerial Committee
for Legislation’s approval of a bill that would see Israel deduct money from
the Palestinian Authority’s tax revenues in protest of the stipends given by
PA to the families of Palestinian prisoners and those who have been killed
by Israel.

The law, which needs to pass three readings at the Israeli Knesset before it
becomes law, will see Israel deduct the equivalent amount that the PA pays
to the families of those who lost their lives during attacks against
Israelis and families of Palestinian prisoners serving time in Israeli
jails, from the taxes it collects on behalf of the PA.

The national government slammed the approval of the legislation law by
Israel’s ministerial committee for legislation as a piracy, a theft of
money, and yet another crime added to the Israeli occupations’ ongoing
crimes committed against the Palestinian people.

The government affirmed that such a decision is invalid under international
law.
