334.850. Personnel provided through division of professional registration, duties — rulemaking. — The division of professional registration shall provide all necessary personnel to carry out the provisions of sections 334.800 to 334.930 . The division shall:

(1)Exercise all budgeting, purchasing, reporting and other related management functions;

(2)Deposit all fees collected pursuant to sections 334.800 to 334.930 by transmitting such funds to the department of revenue for deposit to the state treasury to the credit of the "Respiratory Care Practitioners Fund", which is hereby created. Notwithstanding the provisions of section 33.080 , to the contrary, 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 appropriations from the fund for the preceding fiscal year, or three times the amount if the board requires renewal of licenses less often than annually. 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 fund for the preceding fiscal year;

(3)Process applications and notify licensees when a license is to expire;

(4)Establish the amount the board shall receive as per diem for each day devoted to the member's official duties on the board and reimburse any actual and necessary expenses a board member incurs in the performance of the member's official duties;

(5)Promulgate, in cooperation with the board, such rules and regulations as are necessary to administer the provisions of sections 334.800 to 334.930 . Any rule or portion of a rule, as that term is defined in section 536.010 , that is created under the authority delegated in sections 334.800 to 334.930 shall become effective only if it complies with and is subject to all of the provisions of chapter 536 and, if applicable, section 536.028 . All rulemaking authority delegated prior to August 28, 1999, is of no force and effect and repealed. Nothing in this section shall be interpreted to repeal or affect the validity of any rule filed or adopted prior to August 28, 1999, if it fully complied with all applicable provisions of law. This section and chapter 536 are nonseverable and if any of the powers vested with the general assembly pursuant to chapter 536 to review, to delay the effective date or to disapprove and annul a rule are subsequently held unconstitutional, then the grant of rulemaking authority and any rule proposed or adopted after August 28, 1999, shall be invalid and void.
