Prawer Plan

The Bill on the Arrangement of Bedouin Settlement in the Negev, also called the Prawer Plan or the Begin–Prawer Plan was formulated in September 2011 when the Israeli government approved a controversial five-year economic development plan. It was named for Ehud Prawer, the head of policy planning in the Israeli Prime Minister's Office.

One of its implications is a relocation of some 40,000–70,000 Negev Bedouin from areas not recognized by the government to government-recognized local councils. It was a cause of the 2013 Israeli protests (November).
