The newly-formed Independence faction on Wednesday said that rather than give the Minority Affairs portfolio to Deputy Defense Minister Matan Vilna’i, Agriculture Minister Shalom Simhon will take over the position, as well as the Industry, Trade and Labor portfolio.

The decision comes after sharp criticism that minorities did not want to be under Defense Ministry.
