Hi Andy
I'm not sure about whether the actual winnings are considered as "income", I personally doubt it would, but certainly once you bring the money over here then the interest on the win will be taxable. That's the reason why we just re-invest any winnings we get back into PBs. This can be done automatically. Instead of the prize money arriving they send the new certificate. Increases the chance of winning one of the big ones.
Regards
Mike
