The UK’s Food Standards Agency (FSA) will have a new chair from next summer, as Dame Deirdre Hutton has announced she will step down at the end of her term in July 2009.
The FSA was set up in 2000 as part of a number of measures to improve food safety in the wake of the BSE crisis. Dame Hutton has been at the helm since 2005.
Alan Johnson, Secretary of State for Health, said that while Dame Hutton has been with the agency “it has become even more trusted by consumers and respected by industry as an independent guardian of our food.”
