The one-day hearing had originally been scheduled last month but was delayed after the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
The session, in London, will focus on the UK's pandemic preparedness before 2020.
It will be largely procedural, involving lawyers and an announcement about who will be giving evidence. Public hearings where witnesses are called will not start until the spring. BBC News
