My gripe is that since I was told this 6 months ago, there have been four new roles identified in the business, signed off and recruited for, two going to internal applicants and two external, however when I ask about my position I'm told I must wait for the new structure to be confirmed. 

Then there's no certainty that the post will exist in the new structure. There's nothing to stop you appling for other roles within the organisation.  Restructuring is often complex. With other as yet undisclosed events that may or may not happen lurking in the shadows.
