Didn't you read the press release? It makes clear the intention to restore
the Northern Line service:

"The current Northern line service sees trains running Edgware to Morden
via Bank only and High Barnet to Morden via Charing Cross only. London
Underground and Tube Lines are working to reintroduce a full service on
the line as soon as possible and hope to be able to do this early in the
New Year."

The press release seems to disagree with the Interim Report which says:

This service pattern is being delivered by the current team
of Train operators whose duties are designed around the
integrated service pattern operated before the derailment.
Thus the train service is currently being delivered in an
inefficient manner.

A new timetable designed around the dedicated branch service
pattern is in production, aimed at being available in January
2004.

I think we are going to have the split service for many months to come.
