Abstract

This Law empowers the Minister of the Interior, after consulting with the Minister of the Environment, to declare an area to be a national park. No building work or other activity is permitted unless it has been approved by the National Parks Authority. The Minister may not cancel the declaration of a national park without the approval of the Minister of the Environment, The Council, the local authority in which the park is located, and the Interior and Environmental Committees of the Knesset. A National Parks Authority, appointed by the Minister of the Environment, will manage the national parks and report to the Minister.
