A spat between leading doctors and NHS officials over a seven-day hospital service has led to the breakdown of contract negotiations.

The British Medical Association said the government had failed to recognise the damaging impact long hours could have on patient care.

But NHS Employers said it was committed to talks about the safety of patients and doctors.

It said the decision to stop the talks had come as a "huge disappointment".
