Malacañang on Thursday clarified that there have been no discussions regarding the possible appointment of Patrick Gregorio as secretary of the Department of Tourism, amid social media speculation about a leadership change at the agency.
The clarification came after an online news site reported that Gregorio was set to assume the post currently held by Christina Garcia Frasco.
