I’m not sure about the SA one, but the EU variant of that law already has this thought through.

It has allowances already for new emerging standards. If USB-D came out, there would be zero law changes required.

Which clause of the legislation provides for moving on to a new standard, short of new legislation?

That would be clause 9:

"It is also necessary to provide the basis for adaptation to any future scientific and technological progress or market developments, which will be continuously monitored by the Commission
