Message | This would discourage the practice of lengthy "omnibus" bills and would prevent legislation from simply being steam-rolled through the legislature. Yitzhak Rosenfeld, Leader of Hakla'ut VePituah |
Date | 01:51:32, September 03, 2013 CET | From | Brit Yeudish | To | Debating the Proposal Quota Act 3540 |
Message | We support this, as the Knesset needs to be careful not to rush so much legislation through so fast that it can't give proposals the appropriate level of scrutiny. Yissakhar Levine Leader of Brit Yeudish |

Date | 00:27:09, September 04, 2013 CET | From | Miflaga Progresivit | To | Debating the Proposal Quota Act 3540 |
Message | I guess HVP scared that they can't lie about that many bills. We are legislators and we legislate but as always Metzist wants to do nothing and sit on the buttocks and expects government to do those things but we are the government so we just can't sit on our buttocks. Rosana Herzl MK Leader of Miflega Progresivit |

Message | Still, 10 bills covering an array of issues is a lot to discuss and to vote on all at the same time. Yitzhak Rosenfeld, Leader of Hakla'ut VePituah |
Date | 01:06:29, September 04, 2013 CET | From | Brit Yeudish | To | Debating the Proposal Quota Act 3540 |
