Before approval is given, the department of management shall determine that the examination expenses exceed the funds budgeted by the general assembly to the department or board and the department or board does not have other funds from which examination expenses can be paid. Upon approval of the department of management, the department or licensing board may expend and encumber funds for excess examination expenses. The amounts necessary to fund the excess examination expenses shall be collected as fees from additional examination applicants and shall be treated as appropriated receipts as defined in section 8.2.
