now close to home

Jerusalem (JTA) — A com-
mittee appointed by the
Israeli government to review
the function and perfor-
mance of local religious
councils has recommended
sweeping changes that could
give new legitimacy — and
funding — to the Reform and
Conservative movements
here.
Prime Minister Yitzhak
Rabin has asked Deputy Re-
ligious Affairs Minister
Rafael Pinhasi to review the
findings and recommend
within 60 days which should
be implemented.
Though not all are ex-
pected to be accepted, some
of the changes could
depoliticize and otherwise
radically alter the publicly
supported, Orthodox-
controlled religious estab-
lishment.
The councils oversee the
gamut of religious services,
from marriage to burial,
T - -om mikvehs to synagogue
maintenance, from to the
supply of prayerbooks and
prayer shawls.
Among the most far-
reaching suggestions is for
Reform and Conservative
institutions to receive fun-
ding from the local religious
councils for their religious
operations on the same basis
as Orthodox and haredi

(fervently Orthodox) institu-
tions. Currently, while they
are eligible to apply, they
receive little such funding, if
any.
The committee also has
recommended allowing for
Reform and Conservative
representation on local
councils, where it is current-
ly barred.
Other proposals include
streamlining the system by
eliminating many local
councils and consolidating
them into regional councils,
reducing the number of
members on the councils
who are volunteers, and
radically cutting the number
of publicly paid council di-
rectors.
The committee, which was
headed by former Justice
and Religious Affairs Min-
ister Chaim Zadok, also
called for the reorganization
of the kosher certification
system in the wake of wide-
spread abuse and corruption.
The reorganization would
entail issuing new, standard
criteria for the kosher cer-
tification of establishments
and the formation of a public
corporation to pay Israel's
12,000 kashrut supervisors.

Precision equipment and
highly-skilled personnel are
now in place to perform
this important procedure.

The Huron Valley Cardiac
Catheterization Lab is
professionally staffed
by special procedures
technologists, registered
nurses and a cardiovascular
technologist, offering over
50 years of combined
experience in cardiac care.
The new Cath Lab is
another reason to choose
Huron Valley Hospital for
all your health needs.
