Not so much intractable, but for the new product classes there's no guidance for standards to use to give presumption of conformity with the essential requirements in the CPR (if such terminology also applies to regulations). For Annex IV, Area Code 31, could easily have a multiplicity of applicable standards that would depend on the application. One area of concern relates to national requirements, particularly in France, regarding flame resistance. On this last point, it seems reasonable to assume that national legislation/regulation is not superseded where it does not conflict with EU regulations.
