Jamie Clements, who was NSW Labor's general secretary until early 2016, on Wednesday revealed to the inquiry Huang Xiangmo had given him $35,000 cash in a wine box to help cover his legal fees in 2015.

Mr Clements, who is accused of being handed $100,000 cash in an Aldi shopping bag from Mr Huang, said the first time he heard the allegation was from Ernest Wong in 2017.
