 In spite of huge pressure Haughey refused to resign and survived yet another vote of no-confidence in early 1983, albeit with a smaller majority.Haughey's success was partly due to the death of the Fianna Fáil TD Clement Coughlan, a supporter of O'Malley.Haughey's supporters managed to have the meeting moved to the following week after the funeral, which gave him more time to manoeuver.
