Two points the police make compulsory (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

enforce

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'make compulsory' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'two points the police' is the wordplay.
'two points' becomes 'en'.
'the police' becomes 'force' (the force can refer to the police force).
'en'+'force'='ENFORCE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for enforce that I've seen before include "Compel compliance with (law)" , "Insist on" , "exercise" , "Compel adherence to (a law)" , "Implement - compel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
