Boris Johnson's missing tube figures

Boris Johnson promised greater ‘accountability and transparency‘ in his manifesto.

Since 2003 Transport for London (TfL) have published monthly tube performance figures on their website which measures delays, station closures and excess journey time on the tube.

However these figures have not been updated for months. The last figures on the website are from the spring (6th March 2011) nearly five months ago
.
Is this an accident, a simple error or omission?

Or has there been a decision to reduce the public’s access to information about the state of their tube services?

Is it coincidence that these figures have been hidden from public view for months after the number of tube delays and closures started rising? The last published monthly tube performance figures (6th March 2011) showed tube delays across all 12 underground lines rose 6%.

What is Boris Johnson trying to hide?
