Likud Knesset Speaker Yariv Levin announced Tuesday that the new government will be brought to a vote of confidence on Sunday and then sworn in during a special session of the Knesset.

Yamina MK Idit Silman is expected to be named coalition chairwoman of the new government.

“The citizens of Israel need this government after years without a budget, years in which there was no one to take care of education, health and the economy,” Elharar said. “A government that will take care of the burning issues and all the citizens of the State of Israel.”
