General Motors’ independent compensation fund has now received more than 1,000 claims — a big jump since last week — the fund said Wednesday.

The fund — which as of Friday had received 867 claims — said Wednesday it has received 1,090 claims, including 156 for deaths, 74 for very serious injuries and 860 for lesser injuries. That's up by more than 220 claims since last week, said Camile Biros, the fund's deputy administrator.

Biros also said the fund has now made compensation offers to 31 claims approved by the fund. On Monday, the fund overseen by lawyer Ken Feinberg said it has approved 23 death claims for people killed as a result of defective ignition switches in since-recalled cars, an increase of two since last week. In addition, it has approved 16 claims for injuries.
