Certain subsemigroups of the full transformation semigroup Tn on a finite set of cardinality n are investigated, namely those subsemigroups S of Tn, which are normalised by the symmetric group on n elements, the group of units of Tn. The Sn-normal closure of an element of Tn is determined, and the structure of the Sn-normal ideals consisting of the members of Tn whose image contains at most r elements is studied.
