         1. a.  The department of inspections and appeals may employ
      additional full-time equivalent positions to enforce the provisions
      of this chapter and chapters 137C and 137D, with the approval of the
      department of management, if either of the following apply:
         (1)  A municipal corporation operating pursuant to a chapter 28E
      agreement with the department of inspections and appeals to enforce
      the chapters either fails to renew the agreement effective after
      April 1, 2007, or discontinues, after April 1, 2007, enforcement
      activities in one or more jurisdictions during the agreement time
      frame.
         (2)  The department of inspections and appeals cancels an
      agreement after April 1, 2007, due to noncompliance with the terms of
      the agreement.
         b.  Before approval may be given, the director of the
      department of management must have determined that the expenses
      exceed the funds budgeted by the general assembly for food
      inspections to the department of inspections and appeals.  The
      department of inspections and appeals may hire no more than one
      full-time equivalent position for each six hundred inspections
      required pursuant to this chapter and chapters 137C and 137D.
         2.  Notwithstanding chapter 137D, and sections 137C.9 and 137F.6,
      if the conditions described in this section are met, fees imposed
      pursuant to that chapter and those sections shall be retained by and
      are appropriated to the department of inspections and appeals each
      fiscal year to provide for salaries, support, maintenance, and
      miscellaneous purposes associated with the additional inspections.
      The appropriation made in this subsection is not applicable in a
      fiscal year for which the general assembly enacts an appropriation
      made for the purposes described in this subsection.
