I may be in line for getting a new job and I'm owed 2-3 weeks in lue from the past two years. What happens to those if I do get another job?

Unless you have had it authorised to carry extra days over then you can only carry over 5 days into the next year so any more than that will have been lost. So you will be owed whatever you haven’t taken this year pro rata plus those 5 days if they were carried over properly

If that’s the case you are being had over. Get your union rep to sort this out
