Midrasha Center for Adult Jewish Learning presents:

Knesset Boosts
FEPZ Project

Jerusalem (JPFS) — The Knes-
set is slated to complete an
> amendment to the Free Export
Processing Zone law, thus en-
abling the project to get off the
ground — one year late.
Businesses in Israel's FEPZ,
which will be required to export
all their production, will be ex-
empt from many of the taxes im-
posed on other Israeli
businesses. The zone, to be set
up near Beersheba, will be man-
aged by a franchisee, whose job
will include soliciting companies
to build in the zone. The fran-
chisee will bid for the privilege
of being chosen.
The major change made by the
amendment is to reduce the fran-
chisee's power over the zone. The
original law said the zone's affairs
would be governed by a council
consisting of six government rep-
resentatives and seven represen-
tatives of the franchisee. The new
bill replaces the franchisee's rep-
resentatives with seven business
sector representatives chosen by
a public commission.
The amendment also limits en-
terprises set up to serve the zone
industries, such as banks and
restaurants, to 3 percent of the
total area of the zone, to avoid a
situation in which numerous ser-
vice industries compete with
their counterparts outside the
zone.
Finally, the bill states that
someone who already has a busi-
ness in Israel can also set up a
business in the zone, but only in
a field which does not compete
with the existing Israeli firm.
This is meant to allow current in-
vestors in Israel to benefit from
the zone without creating an in
centive for them to move their ex-
isting business there.
