Hello,
Joint account holder can ask original bank statement and other related document to bank account. He can also get from bank as he is the joint account holder.

Reply:
If you are referring Account statement from Bank, yes, he can obtain. Bank would provide after taking applicable charges if one copy already sent.

Reply:
Bank does not deal in expenditure, what type of receipts are you referring?
However, joint account holder has same rights as the first person mentioned in the account.
In case of dispute, Bank may ask consent of both for operation of account.
