Thank you Rambling, it’s not actually me but for an ex colleague so I shall pass it on, thankfully I’m retired now.

From the acas site

"If your employer says you cannot take holiday

An employer can refuse or cancel holiday, but they must let you know beforehand by at least the same amount of time as the amount you requested.

Example
You’ve asked your employer for 7 days off. They later realise they’ll be too short-staffed that week so they need you to work. They must tell you they need to cancel your time off at least 7 days before it was due to start.
They should give good reason for refusing or cancelling holiday and might suggest other dates, so it’s a good idea to talk to your employer about it."

Some unfortunates have had to rearrange their much anticipated break as a result of the Chinese emergency.

Like if it has already been agreed, can employers tell me I can’t take it although there is proof that it was accepted?
