NB does not move tapes to a scratch pool.  If a tape is in a pool called
OFFSITE and all its images expire, it stays in OFFSITE.  You have to
manually write a script to scratch it.

No, Veritas does not provide such a script.  It's a feature.

Depending on your version NBU handles scratch tapes differently. I think
from NBU 4.5 FP3 it moves tapes that become empty to the SCRATCH pool 
(wouldn't live without this myself)
