Government to Allocate NIS 18M to Rabbinical Courts

The government is expected to approve an additional NIS 18 million for Israel's rabbinical courts in 2026, per reporting at 12:53 IDT. The budget decision is meant to improve public service, upgrade computer systems and reinforce security and operations. The explanatory notes say the current case-management system is outdated and makes efficient handling of court files harder, while the move to a new system is in final procurement and implementation preparation. Strengthening rabbinical courts is a practical service upgrade for Jewish family-law proceedings and should respect Torah law while making access faster and more reliable.
