At least ten percent of the remaining moneys shall be remitted to the association in proportions determined by the executive committee, for use in a manner not inconsistent with section 181.7. The remaining moneys, with approval of a majority of the executive committee, shall be expended as the executive committee finds necessary to carry out the provisions and purposes of this chapter.
