PL/PGSQL functions are already inside a transaction when you execute
them, therefore you cannot explicitly define your own transaction
(BEGIN/COMMIT) block inside a function.

I just tried putting commit work inside a PL/PGSQL function
insert_my_data() and then tried 

calling this function. I got a runtime error.

I suppose you meant psql here, as otherwise the above statement wouldn't
make sense ;)
