It is an important decision, which neither can be taken in a hurry nor be implemented in a second.

Yes, there is no need to remove the ‘correlative’, especially when the poster mentions the use of it. And, we usually place an adverb (here ‘neither’ though it is part of the correlative), a negator etc between the first two components of the verbal, as you have corrected.
