Enforcement: How hard does the regulator enforce?

The Department of Justice declared POGOs fully eradicated nationwide in April 2026, stating there are no official POGOs left in the country. This declaration is backed by a unified inter-agency standard operating procedure signed 22 April 2026 that consolidates intelligence, operations, prosecution and asset-preservation powers across more than fifteen prior laws and executive orders, a structural change from the previously fragmented, multi-agency enforcement pattern. The underlying legal basis is RA 12312's repeal of RA 11590, DURABLE primary legislation reinforcing EO 74 s.2024, so the enforcement posture rests on statute rather than a revocable circular. This combination, a total-eradication claim plus a newly consolidated enforcement instrument, represents the most material enforcement-posture shift of the cycle and carries the highest confidence and durability of any finding in this brief. No further enforcement-event detail beyond the eradication declaration and SOP consolidation was located this cycle.
