A watchful eye is on the $41 million allocated to upskill staff working in youth care homes. 

Minister for Children Karen Chhour has announced the boost, which aims to improve support to kids in care. 

It follows a review of Oranga Tamariki in 2023 that found parts of the workforce relatively unskilled. 

Chief Children's Commissioner Claire Achmad told Mike Hosking she'll be watching how the money's used to ensure good outcomes for young people.
