In 1994 a larger agency was created merging CSL with the Food Science Laboratories of MAFF?s Food Safety Directorate. CSL was responsible for the delivery of science in support of Government objectives. A new facility which brought together all of the previous laboratory facilities was created at Sand Hutton in York in 1996. In 2009 a new Food and Environment Research Agency was launched at the Sand Hutton site
