Here are the top business stories making the headlines in the morning newspapers.
Mike Ashley to leave board of Sports Direct group
Mike Ashley is to step down from the board of Frasers Group, owner of the Sports Direct chain that the retail billionaire founded four decades ago.
Mr Ashley had already handed over the running of the group to his son-in-law Michael Murray earlier this year.
Frasers said Mr Ashley would not be standing for re-election as a director, and would leave the board next month.
The company also announced that Mr Ashley will provide the company with £100m worth of funding.
In a statement to the BBC, the firm said Mr Ashley will continue to be available to the board and management for advice "when called upon".
Boost for north-east companies
North and north-east construction firms are among those expected to benefit from an £87 million-plus cash boost to support workforce training and tackle labour shortages in the sector.
The Press and Journal says the funding is being made available under a three-year growth plan developed after consultations between industry, training providers and the UK, Scottish and Welsh governments.
Published by the employer-led Board of the Engineering Construction Industry Training Board, the new strategy aims to help bring talented new entrants with foundation skills into the sector.
Other objectives are to support ongoing training and the reskilling of workers changing careers.
Holyrood sees business restart today
Business at the Scottish Parliament is to resume today with further tributes to the late Queen.
Holyrood sittings were suspended after the death of the monarch, and party leaders attended her funeral on Monday.
A special session today will allow backbench MSPs to share their thoughts and reflections.
The BBC says proceedings are expected to return to normal later in the week, with the government working on measures to tackle the cost-of-living crisis.
Heavy cost of Europe weaning itself off Russian energy
Europe's economies face a permanent blow from higher energy costs as the Continent weans itself off cheap Russian energy, Barclays' chief economist for the region has warned.
The bank's Silvia Ardagna said the bloc's push for independence from Russian gas will pull down growth, push up inflation and drag down the euro.
"Costlier sources of energy will likely have an impact on eurozone competitiveness," she told the Telegraph.
Industrial powerhouses Germany and Italy have built positions in global markets in part because of plentiful oil and gas from Moscow's pipelines. But they now face losing access to those resources as Russia threatens to cut off supplies, and European powers seek to end purchases from the aggressive dictatorship.
The shift has already led to a sharp slump in the economies of Germany and Italy as their powerful manufacturing sectors, which were suffering from pandemic-induced supply problems even before the energy crisis, struggle with higher power costs.
In contrast with Europe, American industry is likely to be a winner as the country is awash with locally-produced hydrocarbons. Some of these can be exported to Europe, which is trying to expand its capacity to import liquefied natural gas, but the gap in prices may be so large as to push manufacturing out of the eurozone and into the States.
Pandemic over in US, claims President
President Joe Biden has declared the pandemic over in the US, even as the number of Americans who have died from Covid continues to rise.
Mr Biden said that, while "we still have a problem", the situation is rapidly improving.
Statistics show that over 400 Americans on average are dying from the virus each day.
The head of the World Health Organisation said last week that the end of the pandemic is "in sight".
In an interview aired on Sunday, Mr Biden said that the US is still doing "a lot of work" to control the virus.
The interview was partly filmed on the floor of the Detroit Auto Show, where the president gestured towards the crowds.
"If you notice, no-one's wearing masks," he said. "Everybody seems to be in pretty good shape...I think it's changing."
But administration officials told US media yesterday that the comments did not signal a change in policy and there were no plans to lift the ongoing Covid-19 public health emergency.
In August, US officials extended the public health emergency, which has been in place since January 2020, through to October 13.
The BBC says that, to date, more than one million Americans have died with the coronavirus disease.
Grand Theft Auto in online leak
More than 90 videos and images from the next edition of the Grant Theft Auto franchise have been leaked online by a hacker, according to the game's developer.
The content was posted on Sunday following what is being described as one of gaming's biggest security breaches.
Rockstar Games said it remained unclear how the "network intrusion" occurred, but confirmed "early development footage" from GTA VI had been stolen.
The footage was put on the GTAForums site by a user called teapotuberhacker.
The hacker claimed to have gained access to the data by breaching Rockstar's internal feed on the Slack messaging app, and invited executives to negotiate to avoid further leaks.
Additional revelations could include source code, assets, and testing builds from both GTA 5 and GTA 6, which could be damaging to the company's operations.
The BBC says that, while the original post has since been removed by moderators, it has been spread widely on social media.
