The latest round of Brexit talks between Holyrood and Westminster have broken up without agreement.

Ministers met on Thursday in a bid to break the stalemate over clause 11, which would return devolved powers to Westminster after the UK leaves the European Union.

The Scottish and Welsh administrations have consistently refused to recommend granting legislative consent for the Bill as it stands, claiming it is a Westminster "power grab" which puts devolution at risk.

Under pressure from the devolved administrations, the UK Government has now put forward an amendment under which the "vast majority" of devolved powers would automatically return to Edinburgh and Cardiff.

However, Scottish Government ministers have repeatedly refused to consent to any legislation which would reduce devolved powers at Holyrood.

Scotland's Brexit minister Mike Russell said: "The absolutely fundamental point is that the devolution settlement and the powers of the Scottish Parliament cannot be changed unilaterally by the UK Government.

"What happens to devolved powers must be a matter for Holyrood and the UK Government must recognise that.

"The clock is ticking on Scotland's future as we draw ever closer to the UK leaving the EU while there is continuing uncertainty on fundamental and crucial issues."

Scottish secretary David Mundell claimed to be "positive" a deal can be reached to break the deadlock.

Following Thursday's meeting, he said: "We're not there yet, these are complex negotiations but I think the UK Government has demonstrated by bringing forward the draft of amendment that we are demonstrating flexibility, we are addressing the concerns that both the Scottish Government and the Scottish Parliament have raised."
