The final piece of the puzzle?
Likud and Shas agreed on distribution of roles in the coming government last night–bringing a new government ever closer.
Shas head Aryeh Deri will serve as Minister of the Interior and Health for the first two years, and in the second two years will serve as Minister of Finance instead of the Minister of the Interior and Health. He will serve as Deputy PM throughout the 4 years.
Shas will also receive the Ministry of Religious Services and the Ministry of Welfare and Social Security. Two more Shas members will serve as deputy ministers in the Ministry of Education and Ministry of the Interior. Rabbi Aryeh Deri will serve as Deputy Prime Minister throughout the term of the government.
