CVS does not allow restrictions based on commands. I am not aware of any
plug-ins that allow you to do what you want.

Off the top of my head, some of your choices are:

1) use different version management software;

2) enforce the policies by imposing strict penalties for anyone who
disobeys, possibly including firing them if the situation warrants;

3) wrap the CVS commands in a script/batch file/customized GUI, and do
not allow direct access to the CVS executable.
