Clearly CA needs another state agency to look for employers breaking this law. Heck... why not go full China?

You didn't understand. This kind of situation is very common. It's not that there's someone looking for a certain violation, but that the violation arises in the course of an already started, maybe unrelated investigation.

Actually I don't like this kind of law at all, because it causes random enforcement or in the worst case enables selective enforcement.
