The two committees are to formalise a deal to share the financial and social benefits of hosting the two events so close together.
The 2012 Olympics and 2014 Commonwealth Games mark just the second time the two events have been hosted by the same country within two years of each other.
The two committees agreed a memorandum of understanding, to be signed tomorrow, to pursue "joint benefits" arising from the games.
They include deals on sponsorship, volunteers and secondments for staff, but full details have not yet been released.
