As an owner you have a right to carry out a search of the books and records of the owners corporation including copies of reports and correspondence received and sent on behalf of the owners corporation. You need to book the inspection with the strata manager (if you have one) or the secretary and pay the fee prescribed by the regulations. If no email correspondence is included in the files, insist that it is printed for you to read.
Also, as an owner you have a right (as long as you have no outstanding levies) to request any motion you wish to be placed on the agenda of the next general meeting. If you provide the written request to the secretary (or strata manager if they have this function) prior to the agenda being posted and they are obliged to add the motion to the agenda.
In general terms though the best way to ensure you are constructively participating in the process is to nominate for the EC. At the very least you have a right to attend and observe EC meetings (and if allowed to by the chairperson, participate in the discussions).
