Just read it Bob,Page 3 I found interesting does that app mean you can now book leave as an individual when you want it or does block leave still apply

[Bob Bacon]

I'm not sure about Block Leave, however, from 1 November 2019, all Regular and Reserve Service Personnel with an active Defence Gateway account were able to access the My Leave application which sits within ‘More Applications’ on the Defence Gateway.

This new capability allows Service Personnel to administer their own leave, with greater choice in when, where and how they enter their leave.

Service Personnel must ensure they have Chain of Command permission to take their intended leave prior to submission.

Further info can be read here
