Additional positions are authorized for each riverboat or gambling structure that extends operations to 24 hours.
   The bill amends 2009 Iowa Acts, chapter 178, to extend the fiscal period that increases the annual appropriations from the consumer education and litigation fund in Code section 714.16C, to the department of justice. The bill extends the fiscal period authorizing such increases from the fiscal period beginning on July 1, 2008, and ending on June 30, 2011, to the fiscal period beginning on July 1, 2008, and ending June 30, 2013. By extending the fiscal period that authorizes increased appropriations from the consumer education and litigation fund, the bill also extends the fiscal period that moneys may be allocated from the consumer education and litigation fund to the victim compensation fund for cash flow purposes, if the moneys so allocated are returned to the consumer and education litigation fund by the end of each fiscal year the allocation occurs.
   The bill requires the department of corrections and the department of public safety to make every effort to preserve correctional officer and peace officer positions through the reduction of administrative and related overhead costs.
