Legal Adviser to the Government Gali Baharav-Miara responds to Justice Minister Yariv Levin's request to receive separate legal representation in the petitions dealing with the government inspection committee regarding malwares, and announces that she approves the request.
However, the Attorney General castigated Minister Levin who claimed in his letter last week that the legal advisory system to the government is in a conflict of interest because the government inspection committee is also supposed to examine it, and claimed that this is a statement that "lacks any basis".
She further added: "Regarding your claim that the position of the legal adviser to the government seeks to prevent an examination of the system of legal advice to the government and the attorney's office - the legal advice to the government made it clear in its opinion that there is no motive for the establishment of the committee. The prevention only concerns the committee's involvement in pending proceedings and the disruption of investigative and judicial proceedings."
