The aircraft will not fly below Vls regardless of what the FMGC calculates as the approach speed. This was demonstrated by a colleague who flew an aircraft packed with rather sizeable passengers and a loadsheet based on standard weights. When they went to managed speed the FMGC calculated Vapp was actually several knots below Vls!!!!!
