Victorian upper house MP Fiona Patten introduced a bill to Parliament on Wednesday to create the zones, saying she wanted to protect women's reproductive health.

"It's about medical privacy and the rights of women who are accessing a legal medical service…without fear of intimidation or harassment," she said.

Ms Patten said the bill would insert access zones of 150 metres around fertility and reproductive health clinics where yelling, singing and chanting would be banned.

Displaying materials about reproductive health services and "recording of any variety" would also be prohibited.

"It's an issue my party and I campaigned heavily on at the last election. Safe access to reproductive services is something that I have l championed for a long time," she said.

But Ms Patten will need the support of a majority of MPs in each house of Parliament for the bill to succeed.

Democratic Labour Party MP Rachel Carling-Jenkins said she would not support it. She said the rights of protesters would be eroded if the bill was passed.

Ms Carling-Jenkins said she was concerned the bill did not only apply to abortion clinics and could extend as far as pharmacies.

"It's deeply flawed by being far too broad," she said.

But Ms Patten said her bill applied specifically to reproductive health centres.

"No woman should be harassed and intimidated when they are accessing a health centre for any procedure," she said. "But when it's a reproductive health centre quite often that is attached to a lot of emotion and it can be traumatic. It's very personal and very private."

A spokeswoman for the government said it had received the legislation and it was being considered.

Opposition Leader Matthew Guy said the Coalition would look at the proposal on Monday. "It looks like a very small version of the move on laws, which the Sex Party's only MP voted to scrap," he said.

However, he said he was happy to take the proposal to the shadow cabinet for a "sensible debate".

The Australian Christian Lobby described the bill as a "stunning act of hypocrisy". The lobby's Victorian director Dan Flynn urged the government and Coalition to oppose it.

He accused the Sex Party of wanting pro-life activists imprisoned for up to a year for "discussing abortion" within the 150 metre zone.
