I presume you mean the screw-on plastic funnel typically supplied
with a baton or pendent
Google isn't aware of HODS,
but "HO skirt" brings them up.
I wasn't aware of this name and so I have to ask is "home office"
referring to the places where they might be installed, or the
Government ministry that mandated them?

I'm pretty sure the Home Office managed them. This was at the time the Home Office was the relevant ministry for just about everything in the country.

I'm pretty sure Charles would have recognised the nod to "The Men From
the Ministry".
They could all become ArtStudents™ and have ValuableOpinions™ And Influence people on the Internet with the dreary stories of their Daily Lives.
Leaving the 10% of working age who actually can Do Stuff to do it
without tripping over them.
But what could you do with the other half million? We don't need that

Ive often thought when confronted with an overweight Karen in an administrative position she isn't qualified to hold, that the country
would be better off simply paying such people to stay at home. And the
male equivalents.
Socialism holds that people want 'jobs' - when its clear that all people really want is money.
Bread and circuses. The dole, daytime TV and the Internet and plenty of computer games, drugs and occasionally sex.
I know. I've met them.
The savings of bypassing all the expensive rigmaroles that go with
'jobs' - buildings, management, 10 sex toilets, roads, cars, public transport, HR, HS, and accounts departments...
...would be so great that we could afford to pay them more to stay at
home than go to work.
They could all become ArtStudents™ and have ValuableOpinions™ And Influence people on the Internet with the dreary stories of their Daily Lives.
