'You are going to have to create wide ranging groups of people who are devising protocols.' Ex-Qantas chairman Leigh Clifford is the latest voice in our Rethinking Recovery series.

of stories in which prominent Melburnians offer constructive ideas about Victoria's way forward.

Clifford says the risks for each industry will be different and government policy should reflect that.
