State of being neglected (6)

I believe the answer is:

disuse

(Other definitions for disuse that I've seen before include "Fall into this state to be unemplyed? (6)." , "Neglect; abandonment" , "Neglect; desuetude" , "Issued (anag)" , "State of not being employed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
