Rangers EBTs: SPL confirms evidence will be heard in November THE SPL inquiry into Rangers" use of employee benefit trusts (EBTs) will continue later this year. SPL inquiry into EBTs set for 13 November Oldco and newco both to be represented at inquiry Charles Green claims inquiry has no power to strip titles or impose sanctions The league confirmed that its independent commission will reconvene to hear the case on 13 November. The delay comes following preliminary meetings this week with both the oldco Rangers and the newco Rangers, led by Charles Green. The inquiry centres on Rangers" payments to players between 2000 and 2010, and whether players" wages were paid through EBTs in breach of SPL rules. The SPL said in a statement: "Oldco and Rangers FC, who are named in the issues contained in the notice of commission and alleged to have been in breach of SPL rules, will continue to have the right to appear and be represented at all hearings of the commission and to make such submissions as they think fit. Newco, as the current owner and operator of Rangers FC, although not alleged by the SPL to have committed any breach of SPL Rules, will also have the right to appear and be represented at all hearings of the commission and to make such submissions as it thinks fit. The hearing will initially run until 16 November, with SPL lawyers lodging a witness list by 19 October. Charles Green said on Monday that the SPL's inquiry had no jurisdiction over his club, and that the club would not be cooperating with the inquiry. This inquiry runs alongside Rangers" appeal against a £49 million tax bill from HM Revenue and Customs, also related to the use of EBTs.
