Stella Creasy MP had earlier tweeted a photograph of an email addressed to her apparently from the Private Secretary to the Chairman of Ways and Means reminding her of the Rules of behaviour and courtesies in the House of Commons, which were updated in early September.
Paragraph 42 of the Rules states an MP 'should not take your seat in the Chamber when accompanied by a child', with the Private Secretary telling the 44-year-old mother of two this also applies to Westminster Hall.
The Walthamstow MP took part in a debate on the promotion and regulation of financial products on Black Friday in the building, the oldest part of the Westminster estate which is used for additional discussions outside the Commons chamber.
While taking part in the event she was accompanied by Pip, who is still breastfeeding, and received the terse email afterwards.
Sir Lindsay told MPs: 'It is extremely important that parents of babies and young children are able to participate fully in the work of this House.'
He said he had been unaware of the advice given to Labour's Stella Creasy, who was told she can no longer bring her three-month-old son into the Commons chamber, but it 'correctly reflects the current rules'.
'However, rules have to be seen in context and they change with the times,' he said.
