Rabin Cabinet
Includes Sarid
Jerusalem (JTA) — Yossi
Sarid of the left-wing Meretz
bloc will be joining the
Cabinet in an expansion of
Prime Minister Yitzhak
Rabin's government.
But the move to quell a
contentious coalition by ad-
ding Cabinet posts gave the
prime minister new grief as
he departed for a weeklong
trip to Italy and Britain.
At Ben-Gurion Airport,
Mr. Rabin fended off public
criticism of his plan to add
Mr. Sarid and two other
ministers to his Cabinet by
blaming Meretz, one of his
two coalition partners, for
the increase.
But even before the prime
minister's air force jet was
airborne, Meretz hit back,
accusing Mr. Rabin and his
Labor Party of grabbing all
the government goodies for
themselves.
"We owe it to our voters to
exercise the degree of in-
fluence on policy-making to
which our size entitles us;
we cannot give up our due,"
said Energy and Science
Minister Amnon Rubinstein.
Current coalition tensions
had seemed resolved last
week when Mr. Rabin met
with the three Meretz min-
isters and Mr. Sarid, who
chairs the party's
parliamentary caucus. He
promised to bring Mr. Sand
into his Cabinet as soon as
he returned from Europe.
Mr. Rabin said he would
meet with Mr. Sarid and
discuss what portfolio he
was to receive. Political
observers assume the new
Cabinet member will get the
Science Ministry, at present
held by Mr. Rubinstein.
But the meeting triggered
a public outcry when sources
close to Mr. Rabin let it be
known that he plans, in fact,
to appoint three new min-
isters: one from Meretz, one
from Labor and one from his
other coalition partner, the
rigorously Orthodox Shas
party.
The intention,
presumably, is to give the
important labor and welfare
portfolio to the Labor Party,
now that it seems clear that
the United Torah Judaism
bloc will not be joining the
coalition. Mr. Rabin had
held onto the post himself,
reserving it for a future co-
alition partner.
Likewise, the religious af-
fairs portfolio, also held in
reserve, will probably go to
Shas, though there is opposi
tion within Labor to givi
this portfolio to the ferventl
Orthodox party.
Knesset Member Tza
Hanegbi of the oppositio
Likud bloc flayed the prix
minister for swelling th,
Cabinet further, in effe'
making every other,
lawmaker in the coalitiO„
either a minister or deput''
minister.
"This is a nation:
record," Mr. Hanegb'
asserted sarcastically.
His criticism was echoe'
by much of the press, whiL
pointed to the high cost of
running ministers' offices,.'
cars, phones and staffs.
At his airport news con4
ference, Mr. Rabin said the
"growth in the size of the
Cabinet" was the fault
Meretz, which had demand-
ed an additional minister as
the price for staying in the
coalition government.
Meretz hit back fast, argues
ing that Labor had'
overstepped its "quota':
when the Cabinet was fort—,
ed in July by giving itself
excess of positions: 13 min
isterial posts instead of U '
six deputy minister posts n
stead of three, and most
the Knesset committ!'
chairmanships to boot.
Mr. Sand's appointmei
said Meretz, would merc
correct an imbalance th
need not trigger a new Lab,
appointment. Rabin's dep
ture from the counti
presumably will bring a f(
days respite in this mil-,
crisis. When he returns
the end of the week, ti
premier will have to ma
his choices and face
music over his rulings.
