You have declared T_Procedure_Params_Access as "not null", but the 
component T1.I is not given an initial value, so the declaration of My_T 
gives My_T.I the default initial value null, which fails the "not null" 
constraint.

Either remove the "not null" constraint on T_Procedure_Params_Access, or 
give My_T.I a non-null initial value in some way.
