         1.  The terms of all voting members serving on the council on
      January 31, 1986 terminate at the time provided in subsection 2.
         2.  On the date of the commencement of the collection of
      assessments under the Pork Promotion Act, the collection of the
      assessments under section 183A.6 shall be suspended.  The council
      shall continue to operate after suspension until all refunds are paid
      and all funds remaining in the pork promotion fund, less a reserve
      for future refunds, are disbursed for the purposes enumerated in this
      chapter.  Notwithstanding section 183A.7, the council need not retain
      a reserve for future referendums.  Upon completion of these acts, the
      existence of the Iowa pork producers council is suspended.  The
      secretary of agriculture shall certify the suspension of the council
      as of a date certain to the Iowa pork producers council and the Iowa
      pork producers association.  When the existence of the council is
      suspended, the terms of office of council members terminate.
         3.  On the date of the termination of the collection of
      assessments under the Pork Promotion Act, the period of suspension of
      the assessments under subsection 2 terminates.  The secretary shall
      collect the assessments under section 183A.6 until this duty can be
      resumed by the reactivated council.
         4.  On the date of the termination of the collection of
      assessments under the Pork Promotion Act, the period of suspension of
      the council under subsection 2 terminates.  Within sixty days from
      this date, the secretary shall appoint voting members to the council.
      For purposes of section 183A.3, a voting member so appointed is
      deemed not to have served a previous consecutive term.  The terms of
      office of voting members of the initial reactivated council shall be
      determined by lot, but members from the same district shall not serve
      the same terms.  As nearly as possible one-third of the voting
      members shall serve for one year, one-third of the voting members
      shall serve for two years, and one-third of the voting members shall
      serve for three years.  Subsequent voting members shall be appointed
      pursuant to section 183A.2.
         5.  The secretary shall call the first meeting of the reactivated
      council.  Upon reactivation, the council shall reimburse the
      secretary for expenses incurred in carrying out the duties provided
      in this section.
