This decision aims to open the market to increased competition and lower consumer prices. Agriculture Minister Avi Dichter was the sole dissenting voice, voting against the plan. The Finance Ministry hailed the move as a significant step in addressing the high cost of living, with the reform now set to proceed through the legislative process.
