Let $i(n,k)$ be the proportion of permutations $piinmathcal{S}_n$ having an invariant set of size $k$. In this note we adapt arguments of the second author to prove that $i(n,k) asymp k^{-delta} (1+log k)^{-3/2}$ uniformly for $1leq kleq n/2$, where $delta = 1 - frac{1 + log log 2}{log 2}$. As an application we show that the proportion of $piinmathcal{S}_n$ contained in a transitive subgroup not containing $mathcal{A}_n$ is at least $n^{-delta+o(1)}$ if $n$ is even.
