This wikipedia page informs the reader that this is about a UK burial amendment Act used in the UK (not Wales) dated 1880 and that it was used from sometime in 1882 until sometime in 1961.
What would be useful would be simple English explaining:
The exact dates when this Act became law & when it started to be used;
Why it was needed and what were seen in 1880 as it's main benefits;
How and when it was repealed;
What were the failings of this act in the 1950s that caused it to be replaced; and,
Why this act was required and what changes it made to British law from that date.
