In order not that (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lest

(Other definitions for lest that I've seen before include "To avoid the risk that - we forget?" , "For fear that (something happens)" , "In case" , "In order not to, say forget?" , "In order not to, to avoid the risk that" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
