Snippet:
Since the beginning of July, Israel has had no state comptroller – the role responsible for inspecting, reviewing, and auditing policies and operations of the state. This is a result of Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana’s failure to take the necessary steps to implement a Supreme Court ruling ordering the Knesset to hold a repeat vote to elect the state comptroller, following misconduct that took place during the first votes.
