Tel Aviv — Israel’s Environmental Protection Minister Gilad Erdan is proposing the establishment of a government body that would oversee state interests in all natural resources, which would include natural gas, oil, potash, phosphates, and other minerals. The minister said that the government currently has no unified policy regarding royalties, production, and other important issues involving its natural resources. Erdan has proposed that a new body be appointed with representatives from various ministries in order to determine long-term resource and royalty policies, and guarantee that the state is maximizing its revenues.
