Who When Where

I have a parish record of a burial in 1924 which states:

Certified under Burial Law Amendment Act by T Taylor, Undertaker.

I've never come across this before. Can someone explain exactly what this means and why it would be used?

Thanks in advance.

The burial took place without the rites of the Church of England. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Vi ... 1/contents
