Fianna Fáil held power again under Jack Lynch (1977-79) and Charles Haughey (1979-81), but lost once more to the Fine Gael. After a brief return to power under Haughey in 1982, it remained in opposition until 1987, when it once again formed a government under Haughey (after 1989 in coalition with the Progressive Democrats).
