The Commission should, however, provide more detailed analysis with regard to sulphur dioxide levels in rehydrated dried fruit and when they are further processed (dried fruit are permitted to contain levels up to 2000mg/kg, but when further processed the level in the fruit is reduced to 100 mg/kg; the level of sulphur dioxide does not appreciably reduce during the pasteurisation, nor during subsequent storage).
