Planning and Building Law (Amendment No. 170), 5786-2026

Full AI summary

The subcommittee of the National Planning and Construction Council may approve a change in the designation of land. The change may be from land designated for employment or commerce to land designated for residence, and also the reverse, from land designated for residence to land designated for employment or commerce. This authority, which was time-limited, was extended: the temporary provision enabling it will be in force until the end of 2029, instead of the end of 2026. The Minister of the Interior will report once a year to the Knesset Interior and Environment Committee on how this authority is used. The report will include the number of plans the subcommittee approved, how many housing units were approved under them, and the overall change in the area designated for construction for employment or commerce in the approved plans.
