Sorry, forget to mention.
I'm using RM version 2.3.a.1 with Alfresco version 5.0.a.

I have finally solved my problem!
Basically to enable read content you need to create custom behaviour which will call rm audit service and audit the event each time content has been read.

To do this create a behaviour bean:

<java>
@BehaviourBean
public class ReadAuditEvent extends AuditEvent implements ContentServicePolicies.OnContentReadPolicy {
@Override
@Behaviour
    (
      kind = BehaviourKind.CLASS,
      type = "rma:filePlanComponent"
    )
public void onContentRead(NodeRef nodeRef) {
    recordsManagementAuditService.auditEvent(nodeRef, getName());
}
}
</java>

And register it in some of context xmls:


<bean id="audit-event.content-read" parent="audit-event" class="cern.efiles.behavior.ReadAuditEvent">
  <property name="name" value="Read RM Object"/>
  <property name="label" value="rm.audit.content-read"/>
</bean>
‍‍‍‍‍‍

Then restart everything and hope that the Force is with you, young padawan 😃

The link in the last line seems to be broken now.
