Patrick, It's very simple. The date of implementation in the harmonized standards list and the validity of a standard to be used for ce-compliance, has nothing to do and is fully independent of any dates published in a standard. Standards are private; OJEC is government ! In no way a private organization may dictate implementation dates.
