JERUSALEM, March 27 (Reuters) - Israel's parliament
gave initial approval to the state's 2023-2024 budget on Monday
in a key test of the governing coalition amid a battle over the
government's flagship judicial overhaul plans.
The cabinet last month had approved the budget draft that
the Finance Ministry expects will be fully ratified by the end
of May. The budget allocates spending of 484.8 billion shekels
($136 billion) this year and 513.7 billion next year.
The budget next heads to parliament's finance committee,
where it typically undergoes changes before final votes in the
full plenum.
