The Public Morality Council (PMC) was a quasi-official municipal authority. Formed in 1899 to combat vice and indecency in London, its members included representatives of all the major religions as well as leaders in education and medicine. The council continued until 1969 concentrating latterly on opposition to sexual immorality and pornography particularly with regards to theatre, cinema, radio and television.

Records of the PMC comprise of the larger series of records held at the London Metropolitan Archives.
