 Norwegian Collaborationist Forces during WWII
Quisling continued to serve as the leader of the NS party after his initial removal from office in 1940, as the National Union was the only political party allowed in Norway after the Germans invaded.
Quisling attempted to undermine Terbovens attempt at forming a Norwegian branch of the Germanic SS, and Terboven attempted to undermine Quislings National Union party and his overall control of Norway.
This success was ironically in part due to the aid of Josef Terboven, the very individual that attempted to undermine Quisling throughout much of the German occupation in Norway.

 Vidkun Quisling
Quisling had visited Adolf Hitler in Germany the year before, and had actually presented the idea of a German invasion of Norway, so Quisling's belief that the Germans would back his government were not entirely unfounded.
However, the Germans desired more direct control over occupied Norway, and the Quisling government lasted only five days, after which Josef Terboven was instated as Reichskommissar[?], the highest authority in Norway, answering directly to Hitler.
The relationship between Quisling and Terboven was tense, although Terboven, presumably seeing an advantage in having a Norwegian in a position of power to reduce resentment in the population, named Quisling to the post of Minister President (Prime Minister) in 1942 and he assumed that position on February 1, 1943.

The relationship between Quisling and Terboven was tense, although Terboven, presumably seeing an advantage in having a Norwegian in an apparent position of power to reduce resentment in the population, named Quisling to the post of Minister President in 1942, a position the self-appointed Fører assumed in 1943, on February 1.

Josef Terboven who was a top nazi and Norway’s answer to Czechoslovakia’s Reinhard Heydrich, was to be shot in his suite at the Palace Hotel in Copenhagen.

 History of the Norwegian SS
For despite his shortcomings, Quisling was fanatically pro-Norwegian and he rightly saw the political SS a movement towards a Gerat German Reich, and a threat to Norway of being incorporated into it as a mere district (Gau).

One of Terboven's attempts was even to replace Quisling as ”Fører” (leader) of the N.S in June 1940 by his old friend from the Saar Elections, Chief of Police Jonas Lie (born 1899), who although not a member fo the party was a strong sympathizer.

 Northwest Historical Association (NWHA) - WW2 Reenacting Society
In addition to a German commander in chief - to begin with General Nikolaus von Falkenhorst - Norway was also burdened with a political commissioner, Reichskommissar Josef Terboven.
Thus, the occupying power quickly realised that - for the time being - Quisling did not serve their interests and they chose to base their administration of the country on a certain degree of give-and-take with the existing civilian authorities.
Later, the German Nazi Party veteran Terboven was sent to Oslo to find the best way to administer the occupation of Norway.

Terboven shuffled papers and toyed with Hamsun before saying no; they parted with mutual loathing.
Terboven committed suicide before he could be shot; Quisling and other National Union leaders were executed by firing squad in October, and thousands were imprisoned, including Marie Hamsun, who got a three-year sentence and a fine.
But his manuscript was no apologia, even though he said of his wartime polemics, “No one told me that what I was writing was wrong, no one in the entire country.” When a magistrate asked about “the murders, the terror, the torture,” Hamsun said that he hadn’t been allowed to read newspapers.
