Ordinary Deposit Accounts VS Special Savings Account on Form 12 (part 17)

Just a quick question regarding part 17 in form 12.

I'm really just filling it in to declare "Rent a Room" income but I noticed this part which I should probably fill in as well. The interest earned is only of about 150 euro and DIRT has been deducted but I should probably stick it in to be on the safe side.

I have 2 savings accounts, a Rabo personal savings account and an AIB Online Notice Deposit 7 savings account.

Do these go under :
"Gross Deposit Interest received on which DIRT was deducted - taxable at 25%"
or
"Gross Interest received from Special Share Account(s)/Special Term Share Account(s)/Special Savings Account(s) on which DIRT was deducted @ 25%"
??

Just not sure what what the definition of these things are? Couldn't find the answer on the revenue website...
 
A couple of years ago, the banks were offering Special Term Savings accounts with an upper limit, where the funds had to be left for 3 years or 5 years and interest would be tax free.

Yea I had presumed they didn't fall under "Special Share Account(s)" or "Special Term Share Account(s)" but thought that "Special Savings Account(s)" might be applicable...
