"It is important not to confuse the use of BEGIN/END for grouping 
statements in PL/pgSQL with the similarly-named SQL commands for 
transaction control. PL/pgSQL's BEGIN/END are only for grouping; they do 
not start or end a transaction. See Section 43.8 for information on 
managing transactions in PL/pgSQL. Also, a block containing an EXCEPTION 
clause effectively forms a subtransaction that can be rolled back 
without affecting the outer transaction. For more about that see "
