A group of senior business leaders say unless there is full transparency on the recommendations from a new Government Covid advisory panel it risks being seen as a cynical tactic aimed at dampening criticism.
The public call is the latest move by the group which includes chairman of Chorus NZ and Auckland Airport, Patrick Strange; Mercury Energy chair Prue Flacks; The Warehouse Group chairwoman Joan Withers; chairman of SkyCity, Summerset and Tourism Holdings Rob Campbell; and University of Auckland chancellor and Fisher & Paykel Healthcare chairman Scott St John.

Opinion - The government announces it has bought enough vaccine for everyone and a timeline is announced for the rollout. National s election campaign report is described as political dynamite and an Australian minister makes waves that sweep across the Tasman.

National began the week with a call for an inquiry into the Valentine s Day cluster and party leader Judith Collins had a point when she said testing, contact tracing and communications needed to be looked into.
The cluster caused a three-day Auckland lockdown followed by a seven-day lockdown, which Collins said had cost the economy half a billion dollars.
