F. An individual development account and a reserve account may be established only in an authorized financial institution. G. The secretary shall monitor all individual development account programs to ensure that individual development accounts and reserve accounts are being operated according to the contract provisions, federal law, the provisions of the Individual Development Account Act and rules adopted pursuant to that act.
