Cope yet to agree on committee date over Wiggins package

Simon Cope's appearance in front of the Culture, Media and Sport Committee of British Parliament has yet to be confirmed, with the proposed date of February 22 shelved as the Team Wiggins employee is unable to attend. Dr Richard Freeman, however, has confirmed to the Select committee that he will answer questions along with the head of UK Anti-Doping, Nicole Sapstead.
