C. The procedural rules may provide that any or all powers and

duties of the Association, except those under Section 2030 of this

title, are delegated to a corporation, association or other

organization which performs or will perform functions similar to

those of this Association, or its equivalent, in two or more states

if there is a reciprocal agreement with such states to provide

similar services. Such a corporation, association or organization

shall be reimbursed for any payments made on behalf of the

Association and shall be paid for the performance of any function of

the Association. A delegation of powers or duties under this

subsection shall take effect only with the approval of both the

Board and the Commissioner, 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 act.
