"Citizens must be able to find in the withdrawal agreement itself the legal certainty they need in their daily lives. And of course, any reference to European rights implies its control by the Court of Justice of the European Union," he added.

Davis said he was pleased by the progress made thus far, and acknowledged divergences were to be expected.

"We have looked at each other's proposals in depth and identified many concrete areas where we agree as well as areas where there will be further discussion, which will be a priority for the next round as Michel has said," he said.

"We agreed on the need for certainty on the part of citizens both the EU and the UK. We obviously have different views on how we achieve that," said Davis.

A silver lining in the four-day talks was the two sides' "constructive" talks over the Ireland border issue.

Davis said his hope to achieve "a flexible and imaginative solution to address the unique circumstances around the border" was echoed by the EU.

However, that's where the silver lining stops. The EU said it needs to better understand how Britain intends on ensuring the continuation of cooperation between Ireland and Northern Ireland after Brexit which currently is embedded in the common framework of EU law and policies.

It also wants Britain to clarify in the next session how it intends on maintaining the common travel area after leaving the EU.
