British Cycling officials have been called to attend a parliamentary hearing to explain the use of therapeutic use exemptions.
The hearing will focus on the grounds for granting Sir Bradley Wiggins TUEs for the banned drug triamcinolone in the days leading up to the 2011 and 2012 Tours de France and the 2013 Giro d'Italia.
Questions will also be asked about a medical package delivered to Team Sky by a British Cycling staff member in June 2011.
It is expected the hearing will take place in December.
Damian Collins, chairman of the Culture, Media and Sport select committee, said: "As part of the inquiry into doping, the select committee wants to look at the ethics of the use of TUEs and the way this is policed by British Cycling.
"We can ask British Cycling about any incidents in the past where we believe it is important how the governing body oversees their sport."
Wiggins and Team Sky principal Sir Dave Brailsford, the British Cycling performance director until April 2014, have denied any wrongdoing, insisting the TUEs were medically necessary to deal with a pollen allergy that aggravates the cyclist's long-standing asthma condition.
The TUEs also had the approval of the International Cycling Union, the sport's governing body, and there is no suggestion that Wiggins, who left Team Sky in April 2015, or the team have broken any rules.
