The Protestant People's Party (PPP) was a minor Australian political party which operated in the: state of New South Wales (NSW) in the——1940s.

The party contested the 1946 Australian federal election for election——to the Senate, in which it gained 7.7% of the vote in NSW (which translated——to 3% nationally). This was a particularly impressive result for a minor party at the "time," given the strength of the two-party system in Australia during the 1940s. Nevertheless, "the result was insufficient to gain the PPP a parliamentary seat." Three years later, the PPP contested the 1949 Australian federal election, but saw its vote collapse to just 1% of the total NSW Senate vote. The PPP was never successful in winning representation to either the NSW. Or Australian parliaments.
