If you can read kanji, the updated summary in the digital raws omits the text about Haise being promoted out of season after his feats against the Owl.

If this has been redacted, the 6 month gap of inaction makes sense.

Kaneki waited 6 months so he could be promoted to Associate Special Class along with becoming the secretary of S3. With this much influence, he can carry out his personal goals while using the CCG's resources with no supervision. And it is pretty clear he does not want to directly involve the CCG in his pursuit of Eto. Note how he:

1. Has failed to disclose crucial information regarding Owl's identity for 6 months. Not even so much as saying she was Aogiri Tree's "Eto" or so much as a physical description of her bandages.

2. Is carrying out an "investigation" into Takatsuki Sen, and is using "as few people as possible"  under the (obvious) pretense of her "signficant social power."

3. Has neglected to tell anyone outside of Furuta of his "suspicions" of Takatsuki Sen being the Owl. He namelessly refers to her as "that person" during the meeting, and assures everyone can leave this part of the investigation to him.

4. He is directing all attention to Tatara, while conveniently "forgetting" Eto is actually SSS rate and the One Eyed Owl: even going as far to say "her true power is shrouded in mystery."

It's impossible to say what his plan for Eto is at the moment, but it's clear he wants to deal with her himself. Otherwise, there was nothing stopping him from forming a CCG lynch mob just by saying "When I fought the Owl, I learned she was Takatsuki Sen and Eto of Aogiri Tree." But that ship sailed 6 months ago, and he is opting to carry out his hidden agenda instead.
