Abstract
In this paper we shall obtain that the nearring C0(V) of congruence preserving functions that are 0-preserving of a tame N-module V of a nearring N is finite when N is finite. As a consequence, C0(V) of an expanded group 〈V, +, F〉 is finite when the nearring of 0-preserving polynomial functions P0(V) of 〈V, +, F〉 is finite. We then go on to obtain further consequences of this result.
