Every NPA flown in CDFA technique is flown to a DA/DH if operating to EU/EASA OPS.

According to AMC1 CAT.OP.MPA.115 the following applies:

(4) The required descent path should be flown to the DA/H, observing any
stepdown crossing altitudes if applicable.

(5) This DA/H should take into account any add-on to the published minima as
identified by the operator’s management system and should be specified in
the OM (aerodrome operating minima).

Therefore the minima in the route manual, which is usually OM-C, should include those add-ons if they are required. For us the normal LIDO minima are that, and haven't changed in most cases when we switched from MDA to DA.
