Recent immigration changes and non-EU spouse's PR

Hello everybody,
I understand that according to recent (July) changes a person holding dual nationality (British and nationality of another EU country) can not use the European route when applying for his/her spouse's PR.
I'm wondering if the changes will apply to our case.
Our situation is as follow: I (EU national) already have PR (by PR I mean the actual document from HO) and will become eligible to apply for naturalization in January. My husband holds a Residence Card and will become eligible to apply for his PR in June.
My question is: if I hold dual nationality when my husband becomes eligible to apply for his PR, will we be able to use the EE 4 application to apply for his PR or will we have to use the UK route?

Will very much appreciate any advice

The change only apply to new applications. It will not affect your case.
