Former Queensland cabinet minister Gordon Nuttall has been jailed for seven years for official corruption.

He will be eligible for parole in 2½ years - on January 2, 2012.

The one-time Sandgate MP, 56, was found guilty on Wednesday of corruptly receiving $360,000 in secret commissions from two wealthy Queensland businessmen between 2002 and 2005.

He had faced a maximum of seven years' jail on each of 36 separate charges.

Nutall and his family cried as the sentence was handed down by Chief Judge Patsy Wolfe just after 11.30am. He told his relatives, including his daughter Lisa and wife Liz, that he loved them as he was led to the cells by Corrective Services officers.

Nuttall was found guilty following a two-week District Court trial in Brisbane featuring some of the state's business and political heavyweights.
