The families of the six victims caught in the Mount Maunganui landslide will begin heading home - with all bodies now recovered from the site.

They'll have one last visit to the former campsite before it's handed back to the Tauranga City Council with clearing taking place when it's safe. 

The council's meeting today to decide what type of investigation into the incident will be conducted. 

Emergency Management Minister Mark Mitchell told Ryan Bridge it's going to be tough for families. 

He says they have to now leave the support and go back to their own home for funerals, so making sure they're supported is critical.
