If at any time the association fails to submit suitable amendments to the plan, the superintendent shall, after notice and hearing, adopt rules necessary or advisable to effectuate the provisions of this article. The rules shall continue in force until modified by the superintendent or superseded by a plan or amendments submitted by the association and approved by the superintendent.

A delegation under this subsection shall take effect only with the approval of both the board of directors and the superintendent, and may be made only to a corporation, association or organization which extends protection not substantially less favorable and effective than that provided by this article.
