Minister of Justice Dov Joseph last night told the parliament that the Israel Government has asked the Jewish Agency to make available to it a report by Dr. Emil Shmorak, World Zionist Organization comptroller, who charged at the last Zionist Congress that a number of irregularities existed in the Agency set-up.
Dr. Joseph said that the government was interested in investigating Dr. Shmorak’s report and, if necessary, indicting any one found guilty of illegal actions. Dr. Joseph’s statement was made during a debate on a draft bill providing punishment for bribery and corruption.
