Expired Secondary Admin Accounts: Not prompting to change password (Run As)

For a Cyber Security best practice, all local administrative permissions have been revoked from user accounts.

Only a select number of employee's have been provided with a Secondary Admin Account, from which they are advised to run their applications As Admin with.. driving from their normal account with out any privillege.

These accounts are applied via a GPO - which I've named "Special Access Policy" - which centrally configures local admin accounts and targets PC's.

The Special Access Policy users have their own OU, which inherits our default domain/password policy, and has another policy to lock down internet access (applying 127.0.0.1 as a proxy address - with exclusions for WSUS).

Two issues here

• The secondary admin accounts can run applications as admin, despite
  being expired
  
• They are not prompting the user to change passwords
  when expired (and running app as admin)
  

Are there any settings that can be tweaked to change this behavior?
