The smoking incident wasn’t about a breach of by-laws but was rather about an Owner/Landlord not attending to complaints about his tenant’s habit.
In answer to your question, NO an owner cannot specifically compel their Executive Committee or the Owners Corporation to issue a Notice-to-Comply (with a by-law), but if a properly supported (i.e. with evidence) formal request (i.e. via a Motion to be placed on the Meeting Agenda) for either to do so by an owner is refused or has not even been considered after the expiry of 2 months from the date of the request, then that owner can seek Orders under Sect 138 of the NSW Strata Schemes Management Act (1996).
