Would we see insurance companies paying out to property/landowners then suing maori because it is their property that was the cause of flooding?

Brilliant! The maori would claim that the flood water was not theirs, that their water had been displaced by the flood water. All the water which was in the lakes & rivers at the time of the 'Treaty' has long gone. They may own the groove or hole in the ground , but not the contents.
