HCJ 2227/98 - HaMoked et al. v. Minister of Interior et al. Additional Respondent's Affidavit [the Sharansky affidavit]
Minister of Interior Natan Sharansky declares a new regulation, incumbent upon the East Jerusalem Population Administration Bureau, concerning persons whose residency was revoked since 1995. A person who was informed by the Ministry of Interior of the expiration of his residency, or was deleted from the population registry, shall receive residency after he resides in Israel for at least two years, provided his stay abroad did not exceed the validity of his exit card. A person who was not notified of the expiration of his residency or was not deleted from the population registry shall be considered to possess a permit for permanent residence provided he visited Israel while his exit card was valid. The regulation shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to those who relocated the center of their life as aforesaid, to the West Bank or Gaza.
