I have just found this information on Facebook so I thought I would post it here just in case it may help those in the future searching for Irish relatives.

"The Minister for Tourism, Culture and Sport is pleased to announce the addition of further Church Genealogy Records on this website. Church Baptism, Marriage and Burial records from pre-1900 are due to be added for Dublin City, Carlow, Cork (City and West Cork) and Kerry.

... These additional records along with the digital image of these
records will be launched by Mary Hanafin, TD, Minister for Tourism, Culture and Sport and the Archbishop of Dublin, The Most Rev. Dr. John R.W. Neill. This event will take place on Wednesday 16th June @6.00pm in St. Werburghs Church (near Christchurch) Dublin 2. "

This website is now launched and I have managed to find some baptisms for the surname I have been researching amongst the church records.

It even gives you the sponsors name in the records as well.
