Johannesburg - The South African Rugby Union on Monday confirmed that a hearing into a complaint against the KwaZulu-Natal Rugby Union and players Louis Ludik and Willem Alberts would be heard on Wednesday.

The complaint was brought by the Golden Lions Rugby Union who alleged that the Sharks - the commercial entity of the KwaZulu-Natal Rugby Union - had not secured the necessary clearance certificates required before contracting the players.

The Lions also charged that the two players remained under contract to them.

The Lions allege that this constituted a breach of SARU regulations relating to the Movement of Players and asked SARU to investigate the complaint.

Koos Basson - the former chairman of the SARU disciplinary committee -has been appointed as Judicial Officer and will hear the complaint at SARU's offices in Newlands on Wednesday, February 10 at 10am.
