The Supreme Court reached a similar conclusion in other municipal applications 438/14 Anonymous v. The Israeli Database for Car Insurance (HaPaul) (February 6, 2014):
"Indeed, it is difficult to study sparingly and on delicate scales the severity of an infringement under section 70(d) of the Court Law, which permits - as aforesaid - the court to prohibit publication, inter alia, 'in order to prevent a serious violation of privacy...' of a litigant, a witness or another person whose name is mentioned in the hearing. Regarding the serious injury, there are areas that are found in the intimacy of every person, and most human beings - there is no need for statistics to address the matter in the experience of daily life - are greatly harmed by the washing of their personal and intimate laundry in public, even if there are a few exceptions; For dilemmas, see my opinion inCivil Appeal Authority 8019/06 Yedioth Ahronoth v. Levin (2009) mentioned by Justice Zilbertal. This concerns both the state of health of those concerned and their relationships within their families...
In my opinion, it is therefore possible, and even appropriate, to interpret the phrase "serious infringement" in a manner that takes into account all of the above, and therefore in a manner that tends towards respect for privacy. When the affair itself is published without its full name, as a person (desirable) or with an acronym, it is sufficient as a rule to ensure the public's right to know and to be public."
- Following these rulings, on June 23, 2014, the Courts Bill (Amendment No. 76) (Prohibition of Publication of Identifiable Details in a Proceeding in a Proceeding in which Medical Information Was Disclosed) was published, 5774-2014, in which it was proposed to add to the Courts Law the following words:
"A person shall not publish the name or identity number of a party claiming compensation for bodily injury, except for damages due to mental anguish, unless the consent of that party was given prior to publication or with the permission of the court."
- In the explanatory notes to the bill, the proposed balance is detailed:
"The bill is intended to establish rules regarding the publication of identifying details about parties to legal proceedings about whom medical information was disclosed in the course of the proceeding. Since, in claims for compensation for personal injury, sensitive medical information is usually exposed, which constitutes a serious violation of the privacy of the party to whom the information relates, it is proposed to determine that, as a rule, in such claims, it will be forbidden to publish the name or identity number of a litigant, unless he has given his consent to this or the court has permitted the publication. When preparing the bill for the second and third readings, the Knesset's Constitution, Law and Justice Committee will discuss the question of how to ensure that the gag order applies only to the party whose medical information is expected to be disclosed. On the other hand, it is proposed to establish that in all other legal proceedings, including civil claims that are not claims for compensation due to bodily injury, criminal proceedings, matters heard before the Court for Administrative Affairs, and petitions submitted to the High Court of Justice, as a rule, it will be permitted to publish details about the parties, but a party whose medical information was disclosed in the proceeding will be entitled to ask the court to prohibit the publication of his identifying details."
