Hearing into latest financial irregularities to be held next week
Rangers' alleged undisclosed payments to players will be investigated next week after the SPL set the date for the hearing.
The three-man independent panel will hold procedural hearings on Tuesday and Wednesday as they look to decide whether Rangers broke SPL rules regarding payments made through their controversial Employee Benefit Trust scheme.
The probe could lead to Rangers being stripped of league titles, although there are more than a dozen other potential sanctions.
Commission
A statement read: "The Scottish Premier League today announced that the independent commission to inquire into alleged EBT payments and arrangements made by Rangers in relation to players during the period from 2000 until 2011 will sit on Tuesday 11 and Wednesday 12 September.
"The hearing will be chaired by Lord Nimmo Smith and will consider submissions from parties on various procedural matters.
"It will not be a hearing of the merits of the case."
The three-man group also features Charles Flint QC and Nicholas Stewart QC.
The payments are also the subject of a tax tribunal, which is yet to be decided.
The tax tribunal will have no impact on the current regime, which bought the assets and business of the soon-to-be-liquidated club.
