Can i have a CollectionView and a TableView in same View Controller - uitableview

Question

I actually have a view controller in which i am showing product attributes in a table view in the lower half of the View Controller and was showing product thumbnail in table view header. But then i realised that a product can have multiple thumbnails so i should add a collection view in upper half of view controller to show all those thumbnail (scrollable horizontally). I added both datasource and delegate for Collection view (UICollectionViewDataSource, UICollectionViewDelegate) and wrote functions to return number of section, number of rows and cellAtIndex but these functions are not called.
So my query is can i have both collection view and table view in same view controller? If yes, then how?
I am using iOS 8 SDK with swift
