A. Every member may inspect records of an association which pertain to his loan, permanent capital stock or savings account. Otherwise, the right of inspection and examination of the records is limited to the supervisor or his authorized representatives as provided in the Savings and Loan Act, to persons authorized to act for the association and to any state or federal instrumentality or agency authorized to inspect or examine the records of an association. Records pertaining to the accounts and loans of members shall be kept confidential by the supervisor and his representatives except where disclosure is compelled by a court of competent jurisdiction, and no member or other person shall have access to the records or be furnished or possess a partial or complete list of the members except upon express action and authority of the board of directors. Records of an association are not admissible as evidence in any proceeding concerning the validity of any tax assessment or the collection of delinquent taxes, penalties or interest except where:
(1) the owner of an account is a party to the proceeding, in which case the records pertaining to the account of the party are admissible; or
(2) the association itself is a party to the proceeding, in which case any record material to the proceeding is admissible.
B. If any member or members desire to communicate with the other members of the association with reference to any question pending or to be presented for consideration at a meeting of the members, the association shall furnish, upon request, a statement of the approximate number of members of the association at the time of the request and an estimate of the cost of forwarding the communication. The requesting member or members shall then submit the communication to the supervisor who, if he finds it to be appropriate, truthful and in the best interests of the association and all its members, shall execute a certificate setting out such findings, forward the certificate and the communication to the association and direct that the communication be prepared and mailed by the association to the members upon the requesting member's or members' payment to it of the expenses of preparation and mailing.
