From 1904 to 1914, NPCM absorbed many of existing purity organizations in UK. The NPCM Cinema Commission Inquiry was led by the Lord Bishop of Birmingham, and comprised assorted religious; educational and political figures; representatives from the film trade; the British Board of Film Censors; and the Incorporated Society of Authors, Playwrights and Composers among others. NPCM published in 1911 the ‘Manifesto on Public Morals’ and in 1917 ‘ The Cinema: Its Present Position and Future Possibilities ‘, a report and summary of evidence including several passages taken from interviews with children where commission members asked them questions about their cinema-going habits.view less
