China and Vatican agree to extend deal on bishop appointments for 4 more years .

2018 agreement allows Beijing to nominate candidates to fill vacant sees but critics say it has sold out.

In theory it still means the Pope has the final say in the selection of Chinese bishops.

The agreement was reached in 2018 and has since been renewed in 2020 and 2022 .
