| "RAFAEL timely failed to reduce the number of employees, as scheduled within its recovery plan, because of legal agreements and other constraints due to Civil Service regulations that require adequate litigation procedure before a dismissal of an employee. The head of RAFAEL explained to the auditors that the number of employees had been reduced "in spite of the impossible conditions for dismissal of civil servants" and after the Ministry of Defense rejected a legal opinion on behalf of RAFAEL, concerning the immediate reduction of staff by non conventional means."
"The auditor emphasized that (the Israeli) Ministry of Defense rejected RAFAEL's proposition which was presented only after the non conventional process had been already invoked. This rejection was legally founded. It would have been appropriate if RAFAEL and the Ministry of Defense had predicted the inevitable difficulties at the time of planning, and before the unilateral approval as made by RAFAEL." |
