Answer 1

DECLARE
rc sys_refcursor;
TYPE t1_row IS RECORD (col1 NUMBER, col2
col2 number(3));
TYPE t1_tab IS TABLE OF t1_row;
v_tab t1_tab;
BEGIN
OPEN rc FOR 'SELECT id, name FROM t1';
FETCH rc INTO v_tab;
You have to use BULK COLLECT when you use a collection like that:
       FETCH rc BULK COLLECT INTO v_tab;
