The Knesset Economics Committee has approved the Tekuma Bill for its second and third reading in the Knesset, allowing for the release of NIS 4 billion ($1 billion) for development in the Gaza border area. The remaining NIS 1 billion ($270 million) will be earmarked for specific communities to be determined by the government. The bill also exempts the Tekuma belt from across-the-board budget cuts and reinstates Moshav Mavki'im under Tekuma.
