Australia's Productivity Commission examined this issue during an inquiry in 2004 and found the actual and perceived impacts of the EPBC Act on landholders appear to differ markedly. In terms of preventing activities, or of requiring activities to undergo the assessment and approval process, the EPBC Act to date has had little direct impact on the agricultural sector. However, uncertainty about its potential future impacts has been a concern for some landholders.
