Hello

use SETOF cursors.

CREATE FUNCTION myfunc(refcursor, refcursor) RETURNS SETOF refcursor AS $$
BEGIN
OPEN $1 FOR SELECT * FROM table_1;
RETURN NEXT $1;
OPEN $2 FOR SELECT * FROM table_2;
RETURN NEXT $2;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

-- need to be in a transaction to use cursors.
BEGIN;

SELECT * FROM myfunc('a', 'b');

FETCH ALL FROM a;
FETCH ALL FROM b;
COMMIT;
