However, once some recommendations written as standards, and understood and at least partly implemented by some manufacturers, it would be quite straightforward for other laws to prohibit sales to consumers or import of certain product categories unless they meet those standards - and it would be quite crazy to pass such restrictions before the standards have been made and discussed and tweaked, they take work and time to become reasonable.

So assigning resources and specific organization to define such standards is the way to go even if there's no enforcement scheduled yet.
