New Jepps plates - a question?

The new Jepps charts now show non-precision approaches with a 'stabilised descent path' that terminates with a DA rather than an MDA. I have searched for some explanatory material on the correct interpretation of the MAP point but in vain.

Can anyone offer an explanation as to when it is correct to continue to maintain the stated minimum height and when it is not. The term DA tends to imply no level flight permitted but the 'old' MAP appears to be marked on the chart.

Thanks.

G.
