    The Children's Minister promising to use learnings from its first boot-camp for young offenders

    The Children's Minister promising to use learnings from its first boot-camp for young offenders


    Newstalk ZB understands the programme's restarting in Palmerston North on Monday, for another 10.

    It'll reportedly largely resemble the pilot, with more iwi involvement.

    Children's Minister Karen Chhour says the pilot also showed participants should spend more time in the residential facility.

    She says last time showed they were still working through issues and connecting with family.
