The CIRA has its origins in a split in the Provisional IRA. In September/October 1986, the Provisional IRA held a meeting of General Army Convention (GAC), the organisation's supreme decision-making body. It was the first GAC in sixteen years. The meeting, which was held in secret, was convened to discuss the articles of the Provisional IRA constitution which dealt with abstentionism, its opposition to the taking of seats in Dáil Éireann. The GAC passed motions (by the necessary two-thirds majority) allowing members of the Provisional IRA to discuss and debate the taking of parliamentary seats, and the removal of the ban on members of the organisation from supporting any successful republican candidate who took their seat in Dáil Éireann.

These changes within the military wing of the Republican Movement were followed by the political wing and at the subsequent Sinn Féin Ard Fheis (party conference), the party's policy of abstentionism, which forbade Sinn Féin elected representatives from taking seats in the Oireachtas, the parliament of the Republic of Ireland, was dropped.

Mirroring the political split that led to the formation of Republican Sinn Féin, a split occurred in the Provisional IRA. The majority of the IRA Army Executive opposed the change on the basis that it ran contrary to the IRA and Sinn Féin constitutions and were thus illegitimate. Some of these opponents later reconstituted themselves as the Continuity Executive, which in turn appointed an Army Council of the Continuity Irish Republican Army.

Similar to the claim put forward by the Provisional IRA after its split from the Official IRA in 1969, the Continuity IRA claims to be the legitimate continuation of the 'Irish Republican Army' or Óglaigh na hÉireann. This argument is based on the view that the surviving anti-Treaty members of the Second Dáil delegated their "authority" to the IRA Army Council in 1938. As further justification for this claim, which is rejected not only by most Irish Republicans but by the vast majority of the Irish people, is that Tom Maguire, one of those anti-Treaty members of the Second Dáil, issued a statement in favour of the Continuity IRA as he had done in 1969 in favour of the Provisionals (see Irish republican legitimatism).



In 1981, Irish republican volunteers in a British jail on Irish soil undertook a fast to the death to retain their status as political prisoners. The British government, led by Margaret Thatcher, demanded they be classified as criminals.
Ten men died on the doorstep of the British government in one of the most turbulent periods in the tragic history of Anglo-Irish relations.
