Here are the top business stories making the headlines in the morning newspapers.
Royal Mail strikes off
Planned strikes by Royal Mail workers in the next two weeks have been called off after a challenge by the firm.
Members of the Communication Workers Union (CWU) are involved in a dispute over pay and conditions.
The CWU said it had decided to withdraw industrial action notices for the next fortnight following a legal letter from Royal Mail.
The BBC says a series of strikes have taken place in recent weeks and action will now resume on Saturday, November 12.
CWU general secretary Dave Ward said: "We recognise the deep frustration felt by many members over this decision."
The strike action involves more than 115,000 workers, the union said.
Only diesel initially for Glen Sannox
One of the ferries in a controversial Scottish Government contract will initially only operate on diesel - despite being built to also run with liquefied natural gas.
The Glen Sannox is one of two delayed and overbudget dual-fuel vessels.
Builder Ferguson Marine has told MSPs a "technical issue" had delayed part of the LNG system by at least nine months.
The BBC says the vessel was once hailed as a step towards a greener future for Scotland's state-owned CalMac ferry fleet.
The technical issue relates to delays in the supply of sensors needed for the LNG fuel system.
Warning on food prices
Britain has been warned that food prices could rise even further after Vladimir Putin choked off the supply of grain from Ukraine.
David Laborde, a senior research fellow at the International Food Policy Research Institute, told the Telegraph that the price of wheat could rise by 10% when the markets open on Monday, and that the effects of the decision will be felt across the world for months.
Scottish record for Real Living Wage
A record number of people in Scotland are being paid the Real Living Wage, official figures show.
Data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) confirmed 91% of employees aged 18 and above earn at least the Real Living Wage - currently set at £10.90 an hour.
That is up from 85.5% the previous year and is the highest rate in the UK.
The ONS data also showed Scotland has a lower gender pay gap than the UK as a whole.
The BBC says there is a pay gap of 3.7% between male and female workers in Scotland compared to 8.3% across the UK.
Launched in 2011, the voluntary Real Living Wage is set by the Living Wage Foundation charity.
It is higher than the government-set National Living Wage - currently £9.50 an hour for those over 23 - and reflects what the charity thinks people need to earn to cover everyday costs.
All workers will have to pay more tax - Hammond
All earners in the UK, not just the wealthiest, will need to pay higher tax if public services like the NHS are to improve, an ex-chancellor has warned.
Lord Philip Hammond told the BBC that the next few months could be "incredibly difficult" for many people.
It came after Secretary of State for Levelling Up Michael Gove refused to confirm whether benefits would rise with the soaring cost of living.
Lord Hammond questioned how more support for the vulnerable would be paid for by the current government.
The former chancellor, who served under Theresa May, said that Prime Minister Rishi Sunak now faces a "huge challenge" trying to balance the government's books and boost the economy at the same time.
He told the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg programme that stricter rules on borrowing would need to apply in the wake of the mini-budget.
"Borrowing is no longer on the table after the market tantrum...And that applies to a Labour government wanting to offer more public spending, just as it applies to a Tory government wanting to borrow to cut taxes," he said.
Drivers move oil demonstrators
Police have urged the public not to "directly intervene" with Just Stop Oil demonstrators.
Met Assistant Commissioner Matt Twist said people should "call us, and we will deal" with the climate-change group.
The BBC says he spoke after angry motorists removed demonstrators from blocked roads in central London on Saturday.
Mr Twist said he "completely understood their frustration", but taking matters into their own hands could hamper prosecutions.
This is because the police must "work within the clear legal framework and secure evidence for the offence of highway obstruction", he explained.
Old Fiesta costs more than a new one
The average price of a used Ford Fiesta has soared as production of Britain's favourite car comes to an end.
Second-hand Fiestas less than a year old are changing hands for £23,600 - around £400 more than a new version of the same car - because of long waiting lists and a severe shortage of supply.
The Telegraph says a typical used Fiesta now costs £3,110 more than before pandemic disruption to car making sent prices soaring.
Used car prices are climbing again as manufacturers struggle to maintain production levels.
Diesel back above £1.90 a litre
The price of diesel at UK pumps has gone above £1.90 for the first time in nearly three months.
The amount motorists pay had fallen from record highs. But prices have once again started rising.
The BBC says data from Experian showed a litre of diesel now costing 190.12p on average and petrol at 166.17p.
Truss premiership hits council budget
The short-lived premiership of Liz Truss and the "extreme financial turmoil" it brought has been blamed for new forecasts showing Aberdeen City Council will spend millions more than budgeted this year.
By the end of the financial year, the local authority expects a £4.4million deficit in its general fund.
The Press and Journal says top brass are being ordered to delay, stop or reduce spending "wherever possible".
Whatever shortfall is left come March will be covered by council reserves.
Plea by bank boss for return to stability
The boss of NatWest has begged for a return to stability after weeks of political and market chaos, as the bank predicted a 7% slump in house prices.
Alison Rose warned that the turmoil of the past few weeks had caused a sharp fall in business confidence and said that consumers and companies are desperate for certainty.
The Telegraph says it came as NatWest warned of falling house prices and a slowing mortgage market in the months ahead.
British Gas plan to pay customers
British Gas is drawing up plans to pay customers to cut their electricity use by 30% at teatime to avoid blackouts this winter.
The Telegraph says Britain's largest household supplier confirmed it is keen to take part in National Grid's new scheme to shore up electricity supplies amid concerns about energy shortages during the colder months.
British Gas, which is owned by Centrica, said it expected to start trialling a scheme later this year available to its roughly 3.8million smart meter customers.
