we are talking about legal or illegal market? (Easily traceable thanks to the squawking of Facebook....)
Everything becomes easier once clarified this detail.
because then the words CITES and Authority recover their true meaning...
I not very familiar with the Italian case but I think:

a- none of the Mutara breeders should be part of the breeding commission by the CsW Club.
REASON: breeding Mutaras with CsW pedigrees shows that that people have no BASIC knowledge about this breed. As they have no knowledge about CsW they should not have ANY influence on the breeding in Italy. Because all they can teach other breeders is: HOW TO DESTROY OUR BREED.

b- I checked and it seems all Italian Mutaras are kept illegal - with violation of the European Union law. So if ENCI or Italian Club do not want to clarify this case maybe the Italian officials responsible to keeping to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora will be willing to help?
