Let (G, +) be an arbitrary group and let T0(G) = {f∈ Map(G, G): 0f = 0}; the system composed of T0(G) and the operations of pointwise addition and composition of functions form a (left) near-ring. Berman and Silverman, in their investigation of near-rings of transformations [3], found that for every group G the associated near-ring of transformations T0(G) has no proper ideals. In the present paper left and right ideals of T0(G) are considered.
