OK, this is a problem with giving general guidance on a list such as
this! The guidance that I described works when the two harmonised
standards are harmonised under the same directive or regulation.
But Guide 25 is quite general; it doesn't say that its provision only
applies where the standards are harmonized under the same Directive.
Furthermore, whether the dated reference applies or not depends on the
detail of what function the reference performs, not on general rules.
So we have a can of worms. At least, it seems that Guide 25 needs to be
clarified, but the main point surely is that **dated references must be
individually reviewed (by the committee officers or a delegated
rapporteur)**, preferably annually, to see if they are still valid.
