The Ministerial Legislative Committee has approved of a bill by MK Nissan Slominski (Jewish Home), which would punish people for wasting emergency services\' time. \r\nAccording to MK Slominski, \"The incident which occurred during this past Passover in which the entire country was called up following the Niv Asraf affair proves yet again the need for this legislation, according to which, a false call to emergency services such as the police, MDA and fire departments, will result in a fine of 14,400 shekels [$3,770 USD].\" |
