338.070. 1. The board of pharmacy shall set the amount of the fees which this chapter authorizes and requires by rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to chapter 536. The fees shall be set at a level to produce revenue which shall not substantially exceed the cost and expense of administering this chapter. All fees shall be paid before an applicant may be admitted to examination or his or her name placed upon the register of pharmacists, or before any license or permit, or any renewal thereof, is issued by the board.

2. All fees payable pursuant to the provisions of this chapter shall be collected by the division of professional registration and transmitted to the department of revenue for deposit in the state treasury to the credit of the fund to be known as the "Board of Pharmacy Fund".

3. The provisions of section 33.080 to the contrary notwithstanding, money in this fund shall not be transferred and placed to the credit of general revenue until the amount in the fund at the end of the biennium exceeds two times the amount of the appropriation from the board's funds for the preceding fiscal year or, if the board requires by rule permit renewal less frequently than yearly, then three times the appropriation from the board's funds for the preceding fiscal year. The amount, if any, in the fund which shall lapse is that amount in the fund which exceeds the appropriate multiple of the appropriations from the board's funds for the preceding fiscal year.
