Soldiers given extra Christmas leave as a 'thank you'
I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
OAP, no. Command-wide may be but not Service wide.
When AOC-in-C Strike awarded the peace-dividend leave there was much sucking of teeth in Training Command as to whether they should follow suit after all the trainees didn't deserve a dividend. Probably someone pointed out that the staff probably deserved the dividend more than current members of Strike

PN, yes, but if it is added to your ILA, then it's valid until 31 Mar, when you carry over 15 or lose the rest. The idea of shutting down over a period is different but there is no mechanism (I might be wrong here) of restricting those extra ILA days to just Christmas. It's not like the old standdown, where days were specified, nor CS Privilege Days.
