The chairman of the permits committee, retired judge Euni Habash, resigned 10 days ago. The committee operates on behalf of the State Comptroller's Office. Judge  Habash told his associates that he felt "political pressure" put on the committee he headed.
Last month, the committee rejected Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's second request to authorize him to raise $ 2 million in donations from two of his close associates, cousin Natan Milikovsky and businessman Spencer Partridge, to finance his legal representation. According to a statement sent by the State Comptroller's Office to the Prime Minister's lawyers. At the same time it was determined that the prime minister was required to return $ 300,000 raised by his cousin Milikovsky and suits he received from Partridge businessman.
In a statement on the issue, the members of the permit committee stated that "the Attorney General expressed his opinion that if the Committee rejects the request to reconsider the Prime Minister's request, the Prime Minister will be required to reply to Mr. Milikovsky the amounts paid by him. , To the satisfaction of the State Comptroller and the Attorney General, and on a timetable to be determined. "
 As for the suits that Netanyahu received from the businessman Partridge, it was stated that "we believe that the applicant should return the suits to their sleep, but if he has already made use of suits and their return is impossible, so that the applicant can leave the suits in his hands he will have to return the value of the suits to their neighbor or pay the Equal to a worthy cause to be determined. "
The committee noted that "the applicant's affidavits indicate that the applicant is a well-off person, and is therefore required to prove, in accordance with previous decisions of the committee, that he has exhausted his self-financing abilities before turning to donations."
Following the decision, Netanyahu's attorneys petitioned the High Court of Justice, arguing that the committee's decision was "fundamentally incorrect, disproportionate and unreasonable," and was given without authority, and that the files Netanyahu was forced to deal with were "monstrous" "In the face of a massive and unprecedented campaign and the tremendous resources invested by the State in order to investigate and formulate suspicions, there is a single, individual, human and human person who is required to mobilize tremendous resources alongside the strength of the soul to realize the presumption of innocence.
In Netanyahu's party, the Likud, they reacted harshly to the committee's decision. "In order to form a left-wing government of Lapid-Ganz, they are not afraid of any means, including depriving Prime Minister Netanyahu of his right to finance his legal defense, a basic right given to every Knesset member. Culture and Sports Minister Miri Regev told the weekly cabinet meeting that this was a "delusional decision."
Opposition leader MK Shelly Yachimovich, who chaired the State Control Committee, dealt with the issue of financing Netanyahu's legal defense. "State comptroller Yosef Shapira must urgently examine the political pressures exerted on the head of the committee, Abi Habash, and caused his resignation. Netanyahu is behaving in this case as someone who refuses to accept the answer "no" and does not hesitate in any way to get capitalists to fund his defense, and now it turns out that mysteriously the chairman of the committee who stood before the attorney general is getting cold feet in a manner reminiscent of criminal organizations. To return to the agenda after this resounding resignation. "
