Does my employer have to display my holiday entitlement on my payslip? My employer usually displays our holidays but this year since April 6th since the new entitlements of 4 weeks incl bank hols was introduced, ours display minus any days we have taken since April 6th eg: -3 days, I have asked why this is but they tell me they just have not done the holidays yet which is very unusual for my company given its nearly two months ago our holiday year entitlement was renewed, or is there another underlying reason which they don't want to tell us? thanks for your help.

There is no obligation on employers to put these details on a payslip. In fact I've never known an employer do this! There should be a local record of your entitlement- have you asked your manager? He/she will need such a record to enable him/her to approve your holiday requests.
As Factor30 states, there is no obligation upon employers to include details of holiday allowances on pay slips. (Most employers don't do so).

I'm hoping that there's a typo in your post, since the current holiday entitlement is 5.6 weeks per year which, for an employee working a 5 day week (and when public holidays don't fall on a normal 'non-working' day) is equivalent to 4 weeks plus public holidays (not including them, as in your post):
