The party said clean ice pipes should be provided to users, similar to a needle exchange program.

Health Minister Sarah Courtney in Parliament on Thursday tabled a bill which would ban the retail sale and wholesale of pipes.

Those that did not abide by the proposed laws could cop a fine of up to $16,800.

Health inspectors and police officers would be able to issue on-the-spot fines under the laws.

Greens justice spokeswoman Rosalie Woodruff said the ban would make users consider injection of the drug which intensified the risk of addiction, overdose, the transfer or infectious diseases and vein collapse.

She said the sharing of ice pipes would also increase the risk of disease spread.

"Instead of protecting and offering effective treatment programs for individuals and communities suffering from ice addiction, the Liberals are pushing laws that demonise individual users and ultimately benefit criminal syndicates," Dr Woodruff said.

Ms Courtney said Tasmania was one of two Australian jurisdictions which did not have specific offences to restrict or prohibit the sale or display of ice pipes.

"We are taking clear action to better align our laws regarding illicit drugs and reinforcing the very strong message to Tasmanians that ice is illegal, highly addictive and very dangerous," she said.

Police Minister Mark Shelton accused the Greens of endorsing the sale of paraphernalia linked to a damaging drug.
