about RED for CE certification

I have a few questions about the new privacy requirements added to the RED for CE certification starting in August 2025:

  1. Does ANT+ still comply with these new requirements?
  2. Can the nRF52832 and nRF52840 ICs meet the hardware-related certification requirements?
  3. Are there any requirements for the Bluetooth pairing mechanism, such as mandating a manual trigger (e.g., a button press) for the broadcaster to initiate advertising, to prevent unauthorized pairing by others?
  4. During Bluetooth pairing, is it mandatory to use the built-in Peer Manager to achieve encryption, or are other methods acceptable?
  5. Is SDK 15.3 still usable for compliance, or is it necessary to switch to SDK 17?
