Government to approve raising electoral threshold to 4%
----------
Likud-Beiteinu, Yesh Atid and Habayit Hayehudi, the major prospective coalition partners in Israel's next government, have yet to agree on the distribution of ministerial portfolios, but they have reached an agreement according to which the threshold for Knesset representation would be raised from 2% to 4% as of the next election, Yedioth Ahronoth reported Wednesday.
The next government is expected to present the reform for the Knesset's approval. If the reform does indeed become law in the next parliament, only factions that win at least five mandates in the elections will be able to make it into the 20th Knesset.
