SELinux is a MAC (Mandatory Access Control) system. It does not do 
accounting and auditing. However the features in the audit system are 
probably what you want. For information on audit start here: 
http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/audit/index.html

SELinux denials do get recorded in the audit log (/var/log/audit/audit.log)
